haha no i am determined to learn. thats how i work through things, thats how i am passionate about things. i like doing it myself becuase i think its fun, and i like learning in the process. plus if there was a store that i could just go to and buy it, i probably would. either way i would be waiting for a few days for shipment. with a circuit in the signal, it would never sound as good as it did strait, i wish they designed it differently. i take audio very seriously, so it wont sound great to me.

thanks again for everyones help... i did spend alot of time searching and didnt find much... at the very least i hope someone else may find this thread useful.
