Hey JC5. I've been chasing a buzz. It's got to be a bad solder weld. I've been over all the hookups and placements of parts, which seem to check. I'm just going to have to go over the solder joints with the iron. Which is hard for some of the occupied terminal strips. I'll have to undo the connecting screws to let me get at them better. Point to point build seems much more difficult than I'd anticipated. Circuit boards are much friendlier to solder. But I remember I had this problem with my original Grounded Grid preamp I built from schematic. Once I got the one little connection stuck tight, it was silent as an owls feather. Real frustrating though until then.
How do you like your build?
