Congrats... Good to see somebody's hard work paying off and succeeding in the midst of all this boo-hoo'ing about the economy and jobs!
 
So what's the going rate for an amp builder/ technician? I hear south Carolina is a nice place.

Better have you're solder chops up and accept nothing less than perfect because IMO his builds are the benchmark, an Aiken is a life long investment that I should have known a few years ago. My shit chops screwed me.

Yup. I'm only half serious, but it would be a fun opportunity. That said, a soldering iron in my hand is almost second nature for me now, since I've been doing it so long, and so often. :)
 
Good to see you around again Randall and congratulations on the new facility.

I will be looking to hire electro-mechanical assemblers and technicians to staff the new facility, so if you know anyone who wants to move to SC and build amps, let me know!


Randall Aiken

It's slowly coming together...I finally got my ESD workbenches in and have gotten some of them assembled and set up, along with the static mats and some new soldering stations. I am waiting on a shipment of tools and some test equipment (oscilloscopes, multimeters, etc.).

Here is a pic of the electromechanical assembly area under construction:
