my first GC

After reading so many GC messages on this board, I finally make one myself. Although it does not looks as professional as Peter's GC, it does sound Good!

That's very good Alex! Neat and logical layout and looks great too.

How does it sound?

Excellent work Alex- i think it does look professional, very neat and tidy.

Thanks for your comments!

I think it sounds very good. Clear and details, the bass is very good too! I thought with only 2000uF per rail, the bass would not be good. That's a suprise for me because some people commented the bass of a GC is not enough.

I have always found that 1000 uF is enough for the bass.

I bought an original GC and changed it back to a NIGC using pretty much the same circuit as above. Mine has got 2 x 1000uf nearer the hexfreds, DC blockers and mute switches.

I plan on recasing it with selector swithes and volume control.
