-something like this - right??
yup
hehe- I'm not responsible for results.......but I know that you'll like it ;
don't make mistake as few others....... that 25K on input is volume pot,not trimpot

Then, why not something like a source follower he he he?

In order to appeal to Strauss-Meister I ve build a little balcony to support a ZM-approved Pot at the input. I'am very satisfied with the result, very satisfied with me, very proud,...🙂 😀Zen Mod said:

And it works.
This afternoon I observed something strange. After several connecting, deconnecting, reconnecting, etc. inputs and outputs, It appears that one channel became suddenly sort of nice White-noise generator (with little music playing in the background).
I replaced then all the Jfets of the said channel : and no white noise anymore.
Is that a typical case of blown Jfet?
Would it be a good idea to put some (zener) protection at the input?

Its very hot here in Vienna; we have at least 25° above ambient I guess.

who cares for ya........at least when I think that we aren't so far away...
it's hot to me ,too 😉
edit :
there is no input protection which will be effective as little brain usage.......

make a habit: always power off all gadgets you want to mess with ;
always make contact with hot tip on case of device where you want to connect that silly connector
Manu said:Back to back 9,1V zener like in Aleph L? Or other
What do you suggest
Thx
manu
look in 2SK170 data ( find pdf if you aren't already) and look what voltage G-S will make a zappppppppppppppppppppp .
then you'll know which zeners to use
I think I understood.
Thank you very much.
I don't know how it came to this damage, i'am most carefull and scary. But this time...
