Changelog:
- Added thermal isolation of power and ground planes.
- Added optional C8, C9, 0.1 uF ceramic bypass caps for decoupling high-bandwidth op amps.
- Removed the alternate C3 cap mounting position to fit Black Gate NX. These caps were discontinued many years ago and are essentially no longer available.

Richard I was browsing today around the DCB1 sections and I found this topology diagram.
Since the cartridge output is inherently balanced, you think something similar could be done with 4 boards of VSPS or Phonoclone?
The reason I am asking is that I plan on replacing my pre with a passive one, but since my amp is balanced only, I will have to use a 1:1+1 transformer to get hot and cold signals and perhaps a buffer if the attenuated signal is not enough to drive the transformer.
So making the phono balanced will solve the transformer issue for me (athough it will make phono and pre construction a lot more complicated)

Sometimes I want to change my amp just for his lack of SE inputs...- Status
