Re: +/-12V supply?
1.what is SLA?
2.just go and try- you'll have less headroom and maybe not enough drive for your next stage,depending what this stage is.....
I think that you can go without changes
btw-try to search through thread for my post,where I say something about NS10 working with low voltage (after powering off )......
I don't remember exactly what I wrote,but I'm sure that voltage is scary low....

Do you see any necessary mods (component value), or problem involved?
Thanks,

not exactly on topic but.........
My friend Oly is one big (like he like to say ) "Grand Pa Borbelly's" follower ...hehe
his newest "Borbelly influenced" analog stage for sheeeetyyyyyy CD players,usefull also as line stage.....
just a oic for now,I'll try to convince him to share schmtc too.....

Wow, thats a nice looking friend you have there, Choky!! Seems like a very kind type of guy😎here is Oly,
His schematics looks just as nice🙂 I just love that Borbely kind of stuff🙂 My solder iron feels like firing up😉
Steen😎
Edit: shoot me a pdf of that board and I will give it a shot🙂 Pretty nice indeed😉
humble request to mods
I think that this OT Borbely style stage deserves his own thread;
can you move posts 422,423,424,425,426 and 428 to Solid State with
"Oly's Borbely OP stage" as subject ?
or I'll just copy'n'paste in new thread with my self....?
TIA

Hey Steen, you never seem to sleep…

Beautiful link Choky, nice guy and schematics. How come he does a series reg?

Hi Stabist🙂 I just read through this wonderfull thread and think I missed your questionYnd how would you estimate combination of Zen v4 and NS compared to other preamps you've tried with?


Steen😎
Oh, I get my share of sleep allright😀 (I guess😉 )Hey Steen, you never seem to sleep…
Choky, if you start a new thread on that thing, please link us up from here😉

I think that he have some practicall problems with "missing voltage " inside of some shhhhheeeettty CD player,where he put that stage as finall output; something like 2x15V is available ,so solution was to use what you have ,with generic series regs (317 and 337) ,with something
higher Iq through Jfets,just to compensate....
now we do something together as "dedicated muscular series-shunt reg"......or something like that.....
I always have place (read-another case,if I want) and tooboollar

yup;
in any case,I'll make one little page on my www for this ( and maybe few others ) Oly's creation(s)
Just took a closer look at that OP board😀 I have to admit that I love the looks of it😉 All the transistors are thermally coupled together and the overall appearance is just great🙂 Wonderfull work indeed🙂

I have a great interest in your psu of BOZ, and I am thinking to reinforce my BOSOZ with a similar psu, which is a zener follower + source follower.
How do you and your tube friend Oly see this? Any advice? Tks.
Regards
jh
you mixed things twice

tube friend am I,and Oly is SS friend 😉
it's better to use exact copy of my (Oly's) BOZ reg,just because first BJT is also current source for zenner string.....less noise and overall better results
anyway-your version seems functionall ,too .....
I am confused again - my bad habit. 
Thanks for the reply, tube man Choky, and I believe yours must be good.
I was thinking to use NPN transistor and other components already in a junction box . . .
And, I was thinking that the arrangement of a zener regulation combined with an emitter follower will reduce zenner resistance, i.e. due to Rz/beta, so to reduce the ripple in a better way . . . In addition, the following source followers will purify the output voltage once again . . .
Could you give me a hint how yours reduces the noise?

jh
