What resistors are best to use with the crosfeed board from Tangent's website? From what I could gather the 1/4 W RN60 (Vishay/Dale) won't fit. Will the RN55's (1/8W) work? The diagram from Chu Moy calls for 1/4 W.

Thanks again for the help!

I'm an ignorant person... If you look in the picture right above where I was reading you can see the model number of the resistor clearly printed right on the side of it... (RN55)

Looks like 1/8 W is fine

It's nice when you can answer your own questions...

Thanks for looking out for me guys!

It's good to know that sarcasm is alive and well...

Chu Moy specs 1/4W resistors just because they're the most common, not because the circuit actually disspates a quarter of a watt anywhere.

Also, Vishay Dale CMF (a.k.a. RN) series resistors are only 1/8W at the highest temperature they're tested at, 125 deg. C and higher. They're actually rated up to 175, but at almost no load. Down at temperatures you'll see in a headphone amp, they're really 1/4W resistors.
