I'm starting a NEW topic about this because it's hard to find in the BIG 1176 thread & was ALSO, never resolved.
The usual complain is the input gain control has to be set VERY LOW... about 9:00. My GAIN Pot is definitly 10k Audio taper.
I just got done a full night of testing & trying the 2N5457's in place of the BF245A's... this did not change anything.
Something does not seem right. I can back this up by saying, when the unit is in BYPASS you can hear the "HEADROOM" it's capable of but with the Gain Reduction active it isn't close. I can tell that the FET's threashold is TOO low.
This is on BOTH of mine = one has the LUNDAHL LL1540 input tranny (1:1) & the other has the IC input... both do the exact same thing.
I think Jacob metioned lowering the feedback &/or sidechain signal.
What could it be... I mean, some of you say you can get the volumes up around 12:00... this is impossible on my two G1176's & I'm not alone. Either you did something different or your pumpin some weak signal into it:?
If anyone has found a solution... fess up :green:
Thanks
