That's it, you're wacked or need to be wacked.
Naked is also good for the eyes, fully nudy beach season just started overhere and Izza lost 15lbs just in time for lunch.

tweaks for Nicola & Generg
For Nicola Sartori :
look at schematic ..... pairing PSM LS with
is easy , and we only need to increase input impedance of Pumpie , so we don't need any buffer stage in between : increase both R1 and R3 to 47K or 56K , increase both R5 and R6 to 390K , decrease C1 and C2 to 1p5-2p2
for Nicola and Generg - substitute of both Q5 and Q7 (IRF9510) with 2SJ313 : decrease both R11 and R16 to 15R , decrease both R7 and R8 to 220-250R
readjust offset ;
it's useful to put two resistors which values are in rrrrrrrrreddddd
enjoy .......

Mighty ZenMod
Whatshould we do without Mighty ZenMod and his incredible presence,
...... Meanwhile I suppose the number of his heads on his shoulder must be over twenty five,
Shiva was harmless compared to him.....
Thx, thx,thx,

Hi Zen Mod,



I tweaked pumpkin with your recommendations, I had more gain in the stage, is that possible? I reduced the gain 47k instead of 100k.
the sound is different, difficult to say ...... more clarity, less dark, very precise, less warm, more attack.

I have to hear more material, of cause I was used to the old pumpkin sound that was a bit more relaxed.....
very interesting......
the pleasure continues, tweaking frontstage of BA-1......
have a sunny day🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂: and don´t forget


more gain in stage ?
😕
naah ..... who cares what's culprit , as long you're able to tweak it to your needs

.... The more I hear with modified pumpkin music I can say To observe more details and they are better located in the soundstage. The reverberations around voices and the construction done by the sound mixer is comprehensible.
Hi Zen Mod, are Pumpkin kits still available?
as soon I came back from vacation and sort things with new Paypal account ( new foreign bank account etc. ; Serbia isn't covered with Paypal )
say - mid of September
shortening the output for muting
Hi,
can I short-circuit the + and - outputs to ground for muting or is it not good for pumpkin?
Regards,
Marcel

Any downside to using a switched attenuator between them for volume control?
But Mr. ZM, you prefer the attenuator on the input side, right?
I'm gonna build that thing someday!!
