I've been working on a Baby Huey stereo pcb. Everything on one board just like Pete Millett's DCPP: https://www.diyaudio.com/community/threads/el34-baby-huey-amplifier.326920/page-68#post-6891898
Should I have a GND copper pour on both sides?
Pete has only top. I can see that having two pours could cause further ground loops, but there are a couple of 'islands' that aren't as connected as I'd like. Might not make any difference though.
I'd appreciate if someone more knowledgable in PCB layout could take a look and check for any howlers. I'm sure there are improvements to be made, but I think 'done' is better than 'perfect'.
Images and schematic attached.
Interactive view here: https://www.tristancollins.me/diyaudio/ibom.html <- probably easier to see the traces

Thanks,
Tristan
