I've built a LC25 and it works, but is distorted and the peak light is on. I'll check for bridges and placement of parts.
edit: I pulled 2520 out and powered up, to see if it was maybe an opamp issue. no clip light, but r17/ 10r went up in flames!
I inspected gar 2520 and it looks like I misread the "do not bridge/ bridge these pins for support" I must be going colorblind. maybe these circles should be yellow and red, instead of maroon and red! I had bridged the input + pin to c1 on the 2520. I've removed the bridge and will look for another 10r resistor and try it again tomorrow.
