Guglielmo,
The original version of this phono preampl. use low impedance RIAA but the experience done on Phono End is positive.

Hi-end phono preamplifier

In the Phono End I have got a better sound and no noise using medium impedance RIAA.
In general the low impedance RIAA should have some advantages in terms of noise but in this case we are obliged to use like interstage and RIAA network large value MKP capacitors.
If we increase the impedance of RIAA we can use many kind of products like the best silver mica and Jensen copper film paper in oil.
The pcb can be used for both types of RIAA.

Hello all,

is this going to happen or if we stay on 30 pcbs it will be to expensive? What is the price in this case?

Regards,
Pred

Salas shunt??
here is it!

Salas is very smart design, but IMO thanks to Depletion mode mosfet it can be simplified. If you don't have Depletion mode mosfet available you may stick to Salas but IMO 13 components around Q1 can be replaced by only 2: one DN2540 and one resistor.
I can see a point of failure in the design: Q4. If Q3 fails to shunt then Q4 boom!

Below is a simplified version of similar concept of Salas function PSU with 1/3 of components and no low voltage floating devices
