Is anyone using the DPST mute switch? I don't see it on the schematic or in the photo's.

I am going to use it. A small R-S unit. When closed it shorts the output side of the caps to ground. I think I put it in the original schematic( or at least half of it ). When open it is about as far as is possible to have removed from the audio path. What little capacitance is added is well overshadowed by the drive capability of the plate load/output buffer's drive. It isn't a big deal, just requires a turn on sequence if omitted. It also make linestage tube rolling easier, as you can short the outputs, and power off the linestage w/o messign with the amp. regards, Douglas

I did not use it, but the pre does thump when turned on after the amp. I now turn on source, the pre and then the amp with about a 20 second delay between each w/o a problem.....Colin PS Just tried to link Damir's hand drawn schematic and it's gone. What's up with that?

I just checked it to be sure it was available. The image file is stored on a free image host, which will probably throttle access as far as bandwidth is concerned. If it gets hit a lot, the server will probably limit access. But that's just a guess.I copied the image file onto my local computer. If Damir comes back around after what he's dealing with then maybe it will not become an issue. But if he doesn't login to to his hosting account for a long time, it may be terminated. Probably best to get copies of any of the schematics drawn, just in case. I don't think he would mind, and if he comes back around and wants the image files back, we'll have them in case he doesn't.
