    Well, it's not really a simple circuit. I am confident of creating the Circuit Diagram in a program as that's pretty easy. It's the diagram to PCB layout that is where the difficulties lie. I can call upon Alan who can advise.

    The Circuit is for a Valve Phonostage. The cost for a small amount isnt really an issue. I've found a few places that'll do it for £40 ish. Probably cheaper in China too.

    I see your point, Andrew. It's valid.

    There is a working prototype of this Phonostage which has already been tweeked and is in final form. The PCB is really to make life easier. I can't really expand on that yet but it's a finalised version. I just want to get a few PCBs made. A very small run and see how it Looks, sounds, fits in a case etc.

    As we know P2P Is the best way but it's a PCB or nothing.

    A decent Steer was mentioned.
    The one pictured is a Texas Longhorn.

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”
