Though the ringmodulator (the original one with 4 diodes and a transformer)
is a well-known circuit I do not want to copy Ken Stones idea of a module
that uses just this circuit. Adding an amplifier would not really change
very much.
I'd recommend to ask Ken Stone to add an amplifier to his circuit. I'm sure
that this is not a problem for him.
Another possibility would be to manufacture Ken Stone's RM under licence,
e.g. by purchasing the diodes and transformer from him and adding an
amplifier in our module. But I'm not sure if Ken will agree to this
procedure.

Best wishes
