Maybe.
I've built a Voron 2.4 350, and own an SV08. I'm currently working on a detailed teardown/analysis/reverse-engineering of the SV08.
From a user perspective, there haven't been any deal-breakers so far, but certainly some annoyances. In short:
That being said, there are also many nice touches and good attention to detail in other areas. Overall, I'm satisfied with my purchase, but don't buy it to upgrade (aside from the mainboard fan). There be dragons.
If a Voron 2.4 fits in your budget, get a Voron 2.4. if not, the SV08 is a good choice if you can live with those annoyances, and especially if you are comfortable with third-party firmware mods (whenever they come out).
As an aside: based on my analysis of the mainboard, I strongly suspect Sovol is working on an MMU for the SV08.
Did you do a Voron kit? I'm considering doing one and was hoping you had a supplier you'd recommend.
Yeah, I did the LDO kit, revision C. I'm very happy with the quality of the kit and included options/mods.
However, the documentation is... fragmented. It all exists, but it's spread across the official Voron build guide, the Stealthburner build guide, and the LDO print guide, addendum, wiring guide, etc. Super annoying. And there's no canonical part checklist, so it's easy to accidentally print unnecessary parts.
That seems to be a problem with most kits, though, so more of a heads-up.
LDO is releasing their revision D of the kit soon, so you can either wait for that or get a discount on a clearance revision C kit. I know KB3D is supposed to have them 20% off soon if not already (no affiliation, I just chatted with them at MRRF).
That's the kit I was considering! I figure if their motors are alright they probably are reliable for the other parts. Thank you for all that and the suggestion for discounts!
