It's pretty much done! I need to figure out why the Hi-Z inputs aren't working quite right, but the rest of it is working perfectly!

I used Fabio's 312 boards and a JLM Powerstation. AP2623s on the first six channels, and Cinemag CMOQ2Ls on the other two. Cinemag 75101APC on the inputs. I have Fabio's 2520s in there, and they'll probably stay there, but also have eight 1730s built which I'll probably compare at some point.

One thing I learned: don't use the screw on terminal blocks. I tried to save a couple bucks by not getting headers that you can just plug and unplug. What a pain... I later bought pluggable terminal blocks and am much happier.

very clean, when you get a chance can we get a shot of what you were talking about with the pluggable terminal blocks.

The pluggable terminal blocks are currently installed. They look similar to the screw on types I suppose... The one pictured do come off and go on quite easily. I'm out of town, but I could post a photo when I get home of what they look like unplugged if that's what you're after.

No noise problems I've noticed yet with the toroid, but I've not done extensive testing yet. I have recorded some quiet stuff at full gain with no apparent problems (at least on the first two channels).
