Mine has got Obbligato PIO's and they are """" NICE """ Also using a Salas Shunt Reg.
Those things are HUGE! Scared to imagine how much they cost. Did you make much experiment with the input capacitor types?
Ok. Regarding Obbligatos. I like them (thanx to KatieandDad) but I think very worthwhile alternative is my MBGO 2 caps NOS from Russia.
I might reverse back to them after all...
You can use anything you like as long as you can make it fit. Although the Obligattos are HUGE they did fit.
Dont´t know where I should post in this thread with my problem, so I try here.
As soon as I turn the volume down in my B1, also the high frequencies getting damped.
I have to say that in the first place I installed the transsitors wrong with 180 degree. Now I installed them correct but the problem remains 😕

I am using a PCB which I found here

JFETs are symmetrical in construction so should have survived, but thats no guarantee.
Do you have access to an oscilloscope and signal generator to see if you have a bandwidth problem when the signal is attenuated.
Hmmm, I have my ears 😉
Also I do have Pink Noise generator from Logic as software and some software scope 🙂

Thanks for your input 🙂
Yes pot is correct connected. If I dont put the pot but only the 1k resistor I also have the high frequencies damped 🙁

It does look as though you have managed to make a variable filter at the input to the B1. Try increasing the size of the input caps.
