Personally, I love breadboards. I've kept working circuits on them for<br>years, and used them just as if they were built modules. For the longest<br>time, the main portion of my synth was breadboards. I have *never* had a
<br>circuit fail because of the breadboard. I have *never* had a circuit that<br>worked on BB not work once transferred to a finished product.<br><br>When I was building the DimC in partnership with Jeff Pontius, I placed the
<br>breadboard flotilla it occupied (one large breadboard and two satellite<br>breadboards interconnected with wire) into a cardboard box, drove 190 miles<br>to Manhattan, KS, drug it down to his basement, hooked it up to a Blacet
<br>power supply, and drove his Prophet 5 through it into his system. It<br>sounded marvelous, especially in stereo.<br><br>I'm a bit perplexed about the whole issue here.....<br><br><br></blockquote></div><br>
