    I just levered them of with bamboo kebab skewers and carefully sequential heating of the pins; took a few hours all told but nice and clean.

    Andy, should be done tomorrow. I'll pop over after work if you're free.

    I finish at six, so any time after that, it takes about an 40 depending on traffic. I figure half seven to eightish.

    I'm just zeroing out the offset now. I'll leave them soaking overnight and give them a quick play and another measure before i put them in the car in the morning.

    The new transformers are pretty damn quiet, same as Mark's.

    Anyone tried playing with capacitance across the loading resistor?

    I have, to a point. It's easy enough to do for me as I have push fit sockets fitted to the board for the loading resistor and extra capacitance can be added to the resistor.

    I also have sockets in the loading resistor and RIAA positions for now just for experimenting
    I tried a 220pf wima across mine and I could hear a lift in treble which highlighted symbols and hi-hats, but it wasn’t in proportion to the rest of the frequency so didn’t sound right

    Alan,

    I have the ability to change loading just like you and mark. It might be an idea to post some of your values that's you've tried and the results you heard??

    It's all cartridge dependant so what works for one won't be true for another. I used a polystyrene cap and the resistor was a Charcroft Z-foil. Twist the legs of the cap around the legs of the resistor and solder together, then push the legs of the resistor into the sockets.
