    The square wave (only method of testing we have) is not square.

    Looks like a ski jump.

    We got the prototype spot on but there are a few little changes in components on this board which has thrown it off.

    It's the way the I should've gone in the first place but I didn't see the big picture. I only use MC and don't like suts so found a solution of my own, with lots of help.

    However, as was proved with the Ortofon SUT that was here the other day, it CAN work.

    This Interest in a MM version makes me think it's worth the work.

    was the logical way initially, but a straight MM only sometime might be a good idea. where all the money goes into making as good an mm as possible. you could always design a mc ad-on later for it. its all good practice and might get you ahead of much of the competition. not many make really good mm's that also look good.(which to many is as important)

    You are using an inverse riaa stage, yes?

    The stage was initially a MM circuit. We added the MC later on when if got fed up of being unhappy with head Amps and suts.

    It's just a case of incorporating the switch to put the MC side into the circuit. When it's switched to MM, it's in its original form.

    That's ok mate. It's a way off being ready. That's only the initial mock up. It needs loads of refinement. Won't see these boards for 3 - 6 month's, need a prototype to check all is well before committing to a group buy.

    It's all money too.

    Admittedly, can be done in a cheap wooden box but even the parts cost
