If you scroll down to the Appendix 1, R13 and R21 are correctly listed as 1/4 watt types there. |

Got it in the morning, completed in the afternoon. I do not use headphones that much, I paired to "The DCPP engineer's Amp" as a Pre. I does sound really good, it gives a very organic sound. I'm using the CCS load option, I'll probably try the resistive load later. My gratitude to Pete Millett and the DIYAudio store for providing this kit, it was easy to build and, again, it sounds great. Last edited by patkhan1; 24th March 2019 at 04:38 PM.

Hello,
Quick question for you guys. Does this unit used as a preamp put out enough to drive the Amp Camp amp well? I know not all preamps seem to do so and am asking if anyone has tried this one. Regards, Greg |

The build went well & quickly - some of the solder pads are quite small, so it took a bit more care to get them right (especially if they led to the ground plane, lots to heat). I've got a Whammy kit waiting to be assembled (I put it off, since I wasn't looking forward to chassis work) - when I get that together, I'll try to compare. Rich |

Well... as usual, those that prefer to think it over and those undecided DIYers please refrain from purchasing in the store!
![]() Congrats on selling out on the first 5 days of availability and only couple of days after the email invite. Incredible community! Looking forward to the builder's opinions (hope they mostly went to actual builders and not hoarders that would later on resell them on eBay at a profit ![]() ![]() ![]() Best regards, Rafa. |

300 ohm Sennheisers could be good either way, but if you listen very loud you probably want to use the CCS plate load. Best to try both and see which you like best... Pete |

2. There may be subtle differences from one type of tube to another. I would not expect anything drastic. 3. I doubt that any difference would be audible. Of the units I've tested the gain was matched to about +/-0.2dB. 4. The risk with any project that uses an unusual tube - it's possible that somebody will buy up the world supply. I've learned that lesson. There are quite a few out there (they were used in the last generation of the "all american 5" tube radio), and I proactively bought a lot of them (thousands). So hopefully this won't be a problem. If they disappear, there are other tubes that can be used with a resistor change. 5.. I think there would be no benefit. Pete |
