[QUOTE="Family_Dog, post: 77175, member: 82"] Thanks Karl. It used to be quite important when I originally built the amplifier, but I stripped it down a few years ago, had the chassis powder coated, and reduced the input sensitivity from about 40mV to around 500mV. Source components nowadays have far greater outputs than they used to in the golden days of valve amplification. I have also removed the Baxandall passive Treble & Bass network that I used to have. Maybe I should put them back, to get that vintage 'sound' again! :D Not so obvious in the pic, is the fact that the copper bus bar is only earthed at one point and not at both sides, to avoid any possible "earth loops". Works for me! -F_D [/QUOTE]
