the only thing he stole is the business,but there is a good reason for that,and its called delivering in time for the hard money you spent,for sure.

Has anyone figured out a way to drop the noise floor down a bit? I'm wondering if a opamp swap might help as a first step
i made it with a layout in this thread and i can say it worked right from the beginning with basically no noise unboxed,which is remarkable with that amount of gain,but using it as a booster? i'd use the Buxom boost or something less gainy and scooped.Optical wrote:Ive been using my BE-OD as a booster lately for tube amps.

i'm reviewing this project and found in your schematic C17 as 22n,while in the Bugg's schem is 2n2( last stage).Frabbio wrote:Single sided layout for Dirty Shirley+Friedman BeOd in a box, this layout has the best of both worlds, there are 7 pcb mounted pots so you can build a BeOD with a mid control, or a DS with a tight knob, as said before the only notable difference is R16 in my schematic (10k for BEOD, 27k for DS).
I used through hole ICs this time, but i kept the smd diodes (BAV99). If somebody is interested i can post the same layout with normal diodes.
Board dimensions are 115x40mm, it should fit in a hammond bb enclosure.
Layout still unverified but it should work.
If you build it please report if everything is working as intended.
Good DIY!

the rest seems the same,i will build it and report results.
