This 2.5.2.0BC is stable and sounds good right now. The only change from the schemo is C5 = 10pF instead of 47pF...
are you refering to the 25K used from emitter to V- when using another npn as a current source?
..if it is not twice R1, then the Ics are unbalanced and there is a wholly avoidable rise in 3rd-harmonic THD at high frequencies....
My last disection had 6k85 hanging off the emiter and a diode measuring 1231 hanging off the base.
Ciao Fabio,
The last one I pulled apart had the following values....
R3 49K5
R4 8K26
R5 39K5
R2 390R
Q10 emitter R18 6K85
Q10 base R17 is a diode

What I can tell you is that it works with 20k on both sides... but why the difference ?!
I found an error on the 2520r268 board parts layout. The Q3's base and emitter are mixed. They should be the other way around. I've built one and now it's working well without oscillations.
Thanks for reverse engineering this .
BTW what value did you use for C5 ?
