Only if there is degeneration, the pcb design does not permit this type of adjustment.
So having differing values of resistance has virtually no effect, this is why I had instructed earlier, either on this thread or the other one to put in a resistor before and after the junction of the capacitor.
Some members did that and got the results I suggested to them.
This mod is actually better

This will get you the sound.
LED Mod + R7/R4 around 3k - Lower noise, better regulation, and adds thermal compensation to the bias circuitry, compared with the stock zener.
Reduce R1 and R2 to 0.22 Ohms (lower if you want) - Not critically important if you have very good resistors, but it does provide some improvement.
Increasing R4 to between 20 Ohms to 23 Ohms - Improves everything a little

I did as well. Started up at 1.5A. Sound really nice. I think I leve it this way for a while.
3k might be a little sissy. As Zen Mod said.
2.5k would be less sissy.
Anything in between would also be ok.
Obviously 3k is perfectly fine, however the performance continues to improve with further current.
I don't think I would exceed 10mA though just to ensure a long healthy life for the led.
