I´ve got some bc184L transistors and they measure 250-350 hfe.
I´ve read that the neve 283 preamp and output stage calls for 600Hfe or more, hence the need of bc184 "c" version.
But do I really need that high of a Hfe for acceptable noise levels? Does someone in TheLab tried lower gain transistors, like 350Hfe on this circuit?
As always, Thanks!
