Hello, thanks for the answers. I don't think the preamp is the biggest problem, but rather the phase inverter. The Junior Pro hits the phase inverter hard, hence its characteristic distortion.

Re: Budda twinmaster?

Hello, I'm going to build a Budda twinmaster type amp, with 2xel84. I will put fixed bias and adjust some components.
Anybody interested in this project?
