SV08

I modded my sv08 into a stealthchanger and replaced the mainboard with a btt kraken. The first thing you should upgrade imo is the dinky 150w psu with something like the lrs350-24. I think upgrading the mainboard is worth it because the stock board is cheap af, and you will save yourself from a lot

Core One! While I’m sure the SV08 is tuned decently, my Core One has been perfect. I have a Voron 2.4 for tinkering, and will likely build a trident for INDX.

Well you're certainly never going to beat the upgradeability of a Voron. But in most other ways... It sounds like you want to go with the SV08. Particularly with your desired price point and hopes for something relatively plug and play. I went straight from an Anycubic i3 Mega S to building a 2.4 St

I started with a mk3 long ago and purchased an SV08 about one year ago. It’s still working well in its standard configuration. Some things are not perfect, some things could be a little more polished.But I don’t consider myself a tinkerer when it comes to my 3d printer and I’m still quite happy with

I own a max and use it commercially. I've owned printers for years starting with the ender 3. Yes MOST ISSUES can be fixed with BASIC tuning of filaments which you should do anytime you stay using a different brand and type of filament. You also need to have the little power to run this printer. You

Unfortunately sv08 is a good printer, but not a good first printer :p

At $2400 you hit the Venture XL and Elegoo Orangestorm Giga. After that you're moving into the world of Industrial machines l

The SV08 isn't a bad bit of kit, it's just cut some corners on cost with a proprietary approach on some things. Most folks will upgrade the hotend or entire toolhead and go mainline Klipper, maybe add a beacon. But out of the box? Absolute bargain.

Unless you're just wanting to build one yourself, get a Sovol SV08. I did a FormBot kit and it was fantastic. I do not think the LDO kits offer much of an advantage over Formbot and others. I might do Siboor if I was doing it again, just to do 4WD out of the gate.

I'll throw my hat in the ring and say the SV08 by Sovol is also worth considering. It's an OSH printer forked from the Voron 2.4 350mm, meaning it has the same print volume as the H2D. I've had mine for about a year now and it's been pretty fantastic. The amount of features on it are hard to enumera
