I did quite some searching on the forum, but couldn't really find a clear answer, so here it is.
Somewhere on the web I came by this website: http://akavalve.blogspot.com/2009/07/federal-tube-limiter-release-time.html
In order to shorten the release time, this guy swaps C1 (1uF, the release cap) with a 0.1uF. A shorter release time is something we'd welcome on our Federal. However, in order to be sure that this is the way to go, I decided to search here for some extra information. Somebody changed out R1 (2M) with a 1M resistor, but besides that I didn't really found anything. Surely this must be a common mod among the users of this thing?
So my questions, what would be the best way to go? Could changing the capacitor result in any bad side effects?
Any help is appreciated!
Regards Mic
