Hi
I purchased this pcb off ebay with no info
after studying the tracks i have managed to get it working and it sounds very good
i am using a MM cart
the pcb has a switch on it which is shown in the schematic sketch i have drawn
with the switch open the sound is clear
when closed sounds dull and no top end
am i right in saying the closed switch setting is MC ??
mistake in pic the feedback is connected before the 4.7uf output cap

There are other errors. See attached.

Yes, the switch puts 100 Ohms (||10nFd) across the cartridge which sure will roll-off the treble on nearly any moving-magnet needle.

Is IC2 really inverting the signal this way?
And a bleeder is missing after the output capacitor - connect a 10kΩ to gnd there to avoid popping.
Anyone with the datasheet of this SSM2134? Curious because of direct connection to +input.
