Another Super High End Phono Stage! No expense spared...

Pardon my presumption, but I think the pot input feature pads and traces unnecessary as this would be normally done externally and the board could be usefully further compacted by omitting them.

@Pio1980:

you are correct. I thought of simplicity for naive DIY enthusiast. For expert person it is totally useless. If everybody agrees I can remove that before final fabrication.

Regards
 
I usually put the inputs to the selector, then to the span of the level pot and from there the pot wiper to signal in and return to common. Otherwise the elegance of your board layout is quite admirable.
 
Omishra,

Nice board.
How about having the inputs and output
connections on the same side?
It is easier to use that kind of layout where the connectors
are located at the back, like the enclosure used by Sachu888.

Case 1: Input - output, signal level changes drastically ( more than 10X of input)

Case 2: Input - output, signal level remains more or less same between 1X -10X range of input. (e.g. equalizer, filter etc)

For case 1, I always felt safe when input and output are away from each other if they are different (here signal level). I fear for feedback ( my radio background).

I would like to use your suggestion for case 2 above. This is my personal feeling.

Thanks! I would be happy to remove extra pads and traces. It will reduce another half inch from dimension. I will do that to keep only L (+, -) and R(+, -).

Let us hear what others say?

CNC + Super Simple Preamp:

dodog (2 CNC + 2 SSP)
sachu888 (1 CNC + 1 SSP)
omishra (1 CNC + 1 SSP)
pauze (1 CNC + 1 SSP)
bobrown14 (1 CNC + 1 SSP)
learn2tt (1 CNC + 1 SSP)
Grainger49 (1 CNC + 1 SSP)
ghazzer (1 CNC + 1 SSP) <- please confirm.

HypnoToad ( 2 SSP)

If something is incorrect then please update.

I agree... however, having lifted a solder pad off the CNC board (fitting/refitting), having the extra pads could be useful.

Hmm.. making it 1/2 inch smaller will not save much money as well. For specific case still one can cut the pcb and do new mounting holes. Those extra traces could be got rid of.
What you say? Should I keep it as it is now or remove those pads. I don't have any objections. I say keep it there.
 
Hi all
Tomorrow I am going to order 15 PCBs for CNC and SS preamp.Please confirm your interest here.It will take another 10 days for PCB manufacturing.

Sachin

Is it too late to order 3 SSP boards? If not, please put me down.
Thanks,
Al

No you are not :)

Hi Sachu888, can you please mark me down for 2 CNC and 1 SSP?
and can you please PM me the details and info?

Thanks a bunch and a big huge thanks to all of you who made contributions.

Thanks for going out of your way Ghazzer, I would have never caught up to this unless you had PMed me.
