i found a gain of 7.5 to be just short of what i need. a gain of 11 should be fine

In the M³ there are no coupling capacitors, so the output DC offset voltage will be high, and will vary with the volume control setting. |

how does this opamp sound ? Can anybody give a short discription of its sonical character ? |
where is the voltage limit of the M³ ? Caps 63V (electrolytic), tle2426 40V, opa604 50V, 2n3904 40V -> with a little safety margin of 2 or 3 Volts -> 38V max ? |

Can I just put it inline with the AC live wire (one side going to the middle prong, the other going to the top or bottom)? |
c) I'm making a dual input MMM and I've got a DPDT switch for input selection. I read in some thread (can't seem to find it now), that in theory it's not the best idea to have my two sources' grounds connected as are by using a DPDT, but practically, I shouldn't have any problems. Is this correct? |
