Espresso Fiend
After seeing the thread on replacing the alwsr pre-reg with a vbe I got curious.
My psu was a simple affair with just two 50VA transformers followed by 2x15000 caps each and two lm317ts back to back.
The whole thing cost me less than $50NZD and gave a good sound for the money.
So I dug out a couple of dirty power FETs and followed the circuit in the thread, but had to lower the 1K resistor values to get some current flowing.
The sound is fantastic. Completely changed, it's [string of hyperboles].
My next NAC mod is definitely to replace the RC at the beginning of each stage with a vbe.
