My notes say:
Reduce R5, R6 and R7.
Or reduce R13.
I used standard values for as designed gain, i lowered R13 to reduce gain. I'm lazy.
ZM said in one post that R13 isn't the best way to adjust the gain because of a certain penalty, but I can't remember why. I think r5, r6 and r7 are preferred method.
I don't know what will happen if you go beyond designed gain structures. Noise or distortion?

That would be for increasing the gain of the output stage. I am thinking of increasing the gain of the first stage.
it's best to alter gain , when needed in greater amount , varying both degeneration resistor of input JFets and output I/V resistor
ref. to enclosed schm
R5 is thingie in charge of input JFet degeneration ....... higher the value , lesser gain (of stage and overall)
R13 is thingie in charge of transforming output current to output voltage , higher the value , higher the gain (of stage and overall)
pot - yeah - 10 to 50 , being strictly in function/correlation of/with source cojones

Choky,
I like the way you use cojones, especially using it on an audio forum...that’s why I like you.
I have LV shunty but could I go as low as 15v?

you can ;
Her Mueller will rise uneven Hat , as you decrease rails , but with 15V you're still above verge
though , if you have it as option , to save precious volts from existing xformer , go brutal force - no regs** , just insane capacity
or simple cap multi with darlingtons , then insane capacity
**series shaving sissy amount of voltage , shunt shaving serious amount of voltage

What!?!?!?! All these years Ive had it backwards.....actually, I think I have it correct.

aroundish 100mA steereeoooo (SE) (50mA per channel)
best to use mono approach
if you're Boeing to shunt reg , , 100-150mA programmed current ........ so xformer no less than 350mA per leg
if you're Boeing for series reg , that's it ...... xformer no less than 150mA per leg

Hilarious............
I’m going to be using the Salas LVs, so yes, mono. However while waiting for those I’m dying to try this with what I have, which is nice 24v, 150 mah supply. Sonically, it probably won’t be the best.
Bias it at 1v?
