I was planning on using the wima as by passcaps on the power supply, and the vitamins on the bypass caps on the outputs. Now i realize i still need another set of .22 coming off the tubes. So which set should i use for c2,c4 and which set for c3a/c5a since i dont have enough caps for the power supply bypass ( and its not really needed anyway)?


I think you answered your question.

Just finished my SS and I'm listening to it now...

It is built into the cast aluminum enclosure of an old piece of cookware. Easy to service clamshell construction...

Any suggestions for the volume knob? I didn't see it on the BOM and I'm not sure what the dimensions should be. I looked at the manufacturer's page for the potentiometer, and couldn't find any knobs that matched the shaft's dimensions.

Also, will pre drilled face plates for the Hammond case be sold or are we going to have to drill them ourselves?

most likely will have to do all the casework on our own, although i'm sure someone can whip up some templates

Templates would help quite a bit, I also need to buy a drill now D:

Plenty of drawings will be available on the website when it's finished - just as I've done for the MAX and MiniMAX.

To reduce gain and allow you to use the middle portion of the pot instead of just the first few degrees
