    All sold out. I started with 300 transistors and made 15 sets. The sets were no more than 1% between any 2 transistors. I saved one set for myself.

    I am old school for tuners Dynaco fm/af But I am leaning to a Nad 4220 as the nad seems a better choice

    Akai opamp LD3141

    How accurate are the resistor values you got out of the LD3141. I intend to use 1% metal film resistors.
