I may ask Wayne to make a "Vinyl-generator" that will implement 26 dB channel separation to be used after the DAC?
Maybe this will "fool" the brain to "experience" better 3D soundstage?

It might be difficult as for my 2M Black LVB 250 is specified like this:
Channel separation at 1 kHz - > 27 dB
Channel separation at 15 kHz - 15 dB
We need to measure the whole curve........and then a "generator" will only simulate one specific cartridge.....
Channel separation at 1 kHz - > 27 dB

Nope. Nothing at all to worry about.
Also, compared to virtually any other source, 26db channel separation is absolutely miserable. That’s not one of the strong points of vinyl reproduction… so again, don’t worry about it.

are pcbs apart enough, to accommodate 26db of separation?

The Quasimodo is a very useful tool. It makes an easy job of getting the ringing damped just right. If you need to get CE, FCC or CSA etc certified it helps get you there faster by elimination of the rf related harmonics. A side benefit is usually improved audio.
Hello,
Quasimodo may be a valuable tool.
It is not the first one that I speak of when I think about power supplies.
The first words that I herd 6L6 Jim speak of at Burning amp in regard to the P3 power supply(s) were CRCRCR, exactly what I was thinking.
Perhaps as we move along here with P3 power supplies we can include some measurements.
As a little food for visual thought tale a look at a AP555 plot of the recommended TriAd wall wart for the H2 V2 PCB project.
Just a sample power supplyWhat does this wall wart have to do with Pearl 3?
If you go the the WHAMMY page one, you can see what CRCRC does. The regulators have little ripple rejection to do. If you use Marks new supply it has even less to do.
Mark's new Pearl 3 upstream-supply contains more than four** cascaded lowpass filters, PLUS Quasimodo derived snubbers. Mark and Wayne agree that Quasimodo is a useful tool whose recommended implementation of snubbing within the final audio project, has very small cost and very large benefit.

Running beautifully in my bench rig. Powered from my old HP bench PSU, not even a dedicated supply yet, and I am pleased beyond words.

Note the ground wires, they originate at the unlabeled hole on the PCB and attach to the ground post on the chassis.

Just wait, the crew is working on a turn-key chassis solution. It will be much better than the reused B1 Korg panel shown here.

Your OCD is weak
You didn't even matched these input JFets!!
Where World is going ...........
I have seen the future and it has matched 170's.

I'm not complaining regarding JFets ............ just Jim's OCD
