The circuit requires 5 wires which works fine with a standard 5 pin DIN phono connector. you actually need to only put the input matching R and c and the FET's in the headshell (maybe a local bypass).
Maybe if you actually read and listened to (understand) what others say it would help.
Frankly how dare you call my inputs misleading while you say the "Bybee's work for you".

You are not the only one contributing here, Scott. There is a whole group who have little experience and are putting forth suggestions. No wonder many here don't believe that vinyl reproduction has much to offer.
Doesn't happen to me, maybe I'm doing something wrong, like taking basic care of them. Of course, these days, I only play them once, just to rip them to HD.
The error correction is such that you really have to gouge a canyon to cause them to skip or drop out.

For those of you who are into jazz - check this young pianist out, if you have a chance - Beka Gochiashvili

I saw him yesterday playing with Stanley Clarke and what he was doing at his age was simply amazing.
P.S. Quote of the day by Stanley (when introducing his band):
" This is Beka, he's just 19 years old, this is xxx, he's a little older ... well, and I am 100 years old and my name is Louis Armstrong" 😀

I'm with SY. Don't let me see your media stuck on your sun visor and then ask to borrow any of mine!🙂
Okay,
So when I look at a data disk that has been kept in a quality cover, not a paper sleeve and it is scratched that is because I'm throwing it in the air and using it as a coaster right! BS, the DVD and CD drives damage the disks all by themselves. I've see all kinds of rotary scratches and I don't have cheap DVD drives in my computers. Now if you are only using the disk once, I can go with the fact they should look nice and clean but if you have had to do multiple installs with a data disk I don't buy it for a second. I've seen this on every kind of machine, I don't just leave disks laying around. It doesn't take a crater to make these disk hard to read, I don't agree at all.

I've only been buying CDs since '92 (I was a vinyl holdout) but don't know of any that are damaged and have playback issues. Used discs are a different story. Maybe there is some luck involved. I too have moved to HD storage, and lovin' every minute of it.🙂
But there are hardly any based on topologies being discussed in these recent pages, which might offer opportunity for improvement over convention on the face of it, some of which are considered taboo on false precepts ? Isn't it misleading to suggest not to explore them ? 'Very best' is just a hostage to fortune...........
Why not just use a JFET CCS instead of R1 ?
If you use 2SK2145 or 2SK209 (all Idss grades available at Mouser), and replace the trimmer with 2 fixed resistors,
you have good thermal tracking (stable DC) and can make this real small, most likely within 12x12mm for 2 channels.
OK, maybe not with 470uF caps ...... But Nichicon SW has 100µF 6.3V at D5 x L7.

My 30 year old son's rapidly growing vinyl collection. I went into a record store in Manchester UK with him on Saturday and most of the youngsters were walking out with LP's. The CD's were going for £10 and the LP's for £17.
I get the feeling that for digital on the move its downloads and for home listening its LP's with the youngsters.

By the way they are being stored upright - the pic has been rotated by 90 degrees for some reason.
Given that you have by your own admission been MC only for 30+years and almost everybody in the current MM discussion believes vinyl, for all its inadequacies can still be fun not sure where you are coming from here.
