Has anyone compared the SQ of the MAX to the Student version???

with thermafilm pads does the grease go between the transistor and the pad or between the pad and the heatsink? or both? |
also, is it ok to route the wires for my pot ground and output ground thru pin 4 of the tubes? (pot thru one channel's pin 4, output thru the other's) The reason I want to do this is because the tube sockets are right in the path of the output and the pot to ground, and I'm running out of space on my star ground's solder tabs |
Start to finish I'd wager that these amps take a good 8 to 10 hours to build, each amp that is. |

The ripple is about 210mV, but after the 1000uF C1 cap, it's about 30mV. I didn't measure after the C6 filter. |
