I know how the name meta came about, but how about the 42? I assume it doesn't mean the 42nd revision!

I wish someone would of told me sooner. For 52 years I have thought that it was 68. Everything is so clear now.

My guess from the beginning was that when Apheared created the CHA47, he called it "47" because all of the resistors in the amp had the number "47" in them somewhere - 470 ohm, 4.7K, 47 ohm, etc.

Then I believe in the Apheared #42 amp, one of the resistor values was 42 ohm (i think it was the resistor between the opamp output and buffer input) so that's why he called it #42

Just my two cents

LOL, I had the same though. Maybe we subtract there?

On second thought, let's just stop this right here.
