Q re: Paralleling inputs internally for plexi
« on: May 16, 2011, 05:54:30 am »
Hi guys,

When you only have one input and you still want to have the first two gain stages run in parallel, are there any differences to running two 33K resistors (to pins 2 & 7), or if you just run a single 33K to pin 2 & then a wire from pin 2 to pin 7?

Thanks in advance
Rob

That's how I did it. I don't think there would be any sound differences or benefits with two resistors.
A schematic, layout, and hi-rez pics are very useful for troubleshooting your amp. Don't wait to be asked. JUST DO IT!
