It's an Alessandro MS1. Sounds great with the Cmoy. I used 1k resistor in place of input caps. I've built a few now and to my ears the amp sounds more immediate without the caps. I also used 470uF PS caps. My next one will have a TLE 2426 instead of the PS resistors.
I must admit, i'm surprised at how quiet the Cmoy is. Even with the volume at max. and no signal there is almost no background noise.
BTW, thanks for the kind comments

You should put an AD8620 in there! These chips are amazing imo. Also, the TLE2426 is great. I have a pic of my Cmoy with both the AD8620 and TLE2426 in it. Would you like to see pics?

Here you go. This was my first and only amp. It's just modified a little from the original and the switch broke before i took the pic. LOL. You can also kind of make out the black of the TLE2426 between the power caps and i took out the input caps. Tell me what you guys think.
