Coolet,
Great PCB, and size (100X80 is standard), only move R36(10R) around R1,C2 and connect near input GND. You use bipolar C1, than you can add another input, DC input like in SR200. I will use this PCB design, thank's for share.
Regards
 
SR50, SR200

Good design , apex. Mind if I make a voltage board out of it ??
hawksford cascode meets hitachi topology ....


A few comments/questions.

1 . why 47k for r22/23? , mje340/350 are low hfe , might need more current for stable cascode reference. also , why do you reference cascode to ground.

2.why no CCS for input pair , this might make for better sonics at the expense of PSRR.

3.very small Vbe decoupling.. - .22uF ???

4. C10/11 ... are there OPS stability issues ?? I have only needed this on my prototype triple EF's.

Still , nice in general... might need a 100 x 100mm voltage board layout to do it.(lots of trannies) But I will , as well as simulate the heck out of it. 😀

Hi OS,
1. I always use 1N4148 with 1-1,5mA reff to gnd for CCS or cascode and it's stable with half of this current.
2. I considering to use CCS with FET instead 15k resistor.
3. I usualy don't use Vbe decoupling or very small value 22nF.
4. I don't use C10/11 for my home amp, it's add only for DIY version.
Regards
