Normally I'd prototype a circuit on a breadboard first until I was happy with the circuit, then draw up how I'd connect it on a proto board then finalise it. Even if you had the whole board laid out properly but still undecided on certain components, you could make them swappable, but normally that would be done in the prototyping stage. Just my two pennies worth, feel free to argue anything with me. |

I also need to know how you are attaching the inputs and outputs to the channels. Just one thing to clarify, I'm a relative noob too, so I might need correcting. Is the feedback loop on the L+R channels really necessary? The way I'm reading it is that you're feeding the signal from the end of the amp into the headphones but returning it back to the input stage of the amp? If that is correct then the signal returns from each channel via the ground not the channel it's feeding. |

They are meant to be mounted on a PCB, which is then mounted to the front of the amp chassis. I'm pretty happy with the way they turned out. They accept my Stax headphones very well. |
