The Multi Amp aka Dynalo Mk2

Oh, please stay away from Canare Star-Quad. Very high capacitance. The so-called advantages of the twisted starquad are offset by its disadvantages. I suggest Mogami cable designated for AES/EBU, but it's really very low capacitance balanced cable great for analog: http://www.mogamicable.com/category/bulk/dig_interface/aes_ebu/

It's very neutral, no sonic color, very wide bandwidth. The only down side of the Mogami is you have to be very fast on the soldering iron because the insulation melts very quickly. But then, good soldering technique is a badge of being a DIYer.

I've got another section of Canare L4E6S ordered so I can wire up a balanced cable. Single ended it sounds pretty good with LCD2, maybe seems a bit bright. I'll need to double blind with the KSA5 to see if it's just me. I'll take your advice and swap to balanced input at some point.

Switch is from ebay here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/151028998690

Jumpers? I added two for the sense right at the unit....is there one that comes off? Voltage is a little low, 13.3 is what I'm getting out of it now.

I'd be in for a 4deck 10K if the price is reasonable.

so you have heard of book matched veniers...

Very nice, any possibility of adding thru hole pads for the output stage emitter resistors ?

 

I am thinking about using Vishay TX2575 Z-Foil resistors (0.15"/3.81mm leadspacing)

 

Texas Components lists the ASM2575 SMD version but they seem to have trouble getting the substrates for the small (0805, 1206) sizes.

Happened to me the last couple of times when I tried to place an order for them.
