So finally starting to put together my wish list/shopping list to build my new display after a 10year absence and have a couple of questions for the learned people on ACL

Since everyone have been having issue's with seed's.
I thought it was about time to show off, how well they can really work.
Yes, I had many faulty seeds, but only during the build,
(cable tied too hard, soldered while they were on) stupid mistakes really.
