Hello everyone!!! I hope you find some value in this episode. This one is full of thoughts and opinions, wrong or right. I look forward to your thoughts, although I get the feeling some may not be so nice... Just keep it PG.

Great vid! Very cool to see these builds side by side.

From a future amp builder, your work looks great.
Notable ommissions from your analysis: Bartel amps and Schroeder amps. Bartel's pegboard circuits are masterpieces.

Good stuff! This made for a very pleasant train ride home from work today. On your Zener amp - is that a copper buss wire on the output jacks? Does that get funky green over time?
