Just received my Seduction and CS4 kit.  Looks like a great kit, the instructions are very well written.  I can't wait to dig into it.  One question I have. Should you build the Seduction kit stock and then modify it with the CS4, or just make the modifications as you are building the Seduction?

Thanks

Debra

I always suggest building it stock first. It's much easier to debug if there are any problems, and it's well worth your time to hear the difference the C4S makes - all part of the educational benefit of a kit!

I would build it stock first. That way you can know 100 percent that you have a good, working platform. After a few days of living with it in stock form, then go for the upgrade installation. Only a few resistors need to be removed for the upgrade, so there isn't a huge advantage to building it all in one shot.

Another thing that you get is the knowledge of what the C4S does for you.

That is what I thought.  I will build it stock first.

Thanks for your quick responses
