I do have a 192R. Will try that in a day or so. I need to get a few more pressings under my belt first at this value. As I listened more tonight the initial impression wore off to a degree and the center stage filled in to a degree. What became more noticable was the solidity of the bass line. A good word would be more concussive. It isn't a tuby experience just that I percieved to feel it more.
Run it a bit more then. Lower values are certainly electrically well matched too, if its a 5 Ohm coil typical Lyra.
I tried to this build to do my best!
The caps were very good matched also. Hopefully no micas bypass.
In the shunt 1.2R I changed the 47uF capacitor to Silmic II and a little bit tighter layout.

That one is with the K170V jfets, yes? What is the measured value of your small Riaa capacitor?
Yes, with K170V. The small ones are one 15,072 nF and the other 15,107. The 47nF came 46,96 and 46,96. R4 came 6,790 kOhm and R14 47,07 kOhm. Measured with my LCR meter.
Merlin, yes I bought them from Mark.

The Riaa caps ARE in the signal path essentially, its nice to pick good ones.

Going well I see, but decouple those long incoming DC twisted pair wires right at the regs input connectors with some 0.1-1uF film cap each, also. I think its good practice. Or you are going to connect the M-Lytics for that?
has anyone got a stripboard layout that they can show us that works well? I'd love to build this cct but I haven't laid circuits out on stripboard much.
