WHAT compressor layout/schem C4 reversed polarity?

[Aharon]

The layout has C4 with the positive side towards the output and the schem has it facing the other way.
Which one is correct?.
Thanks

Here's an excerpt from the construction notes:
"On the schematic, all polarized capacitors are shown with the negative
plate curved and the positive plate flat."

The cap is the output coupling cap & is the wrong way round on the PCB. However, there is no DC on the capacitor so it seems to be OK.

The other solution is to swap it on the PCB

Move on, Aharon. I have finished mine and it sounds very good.

I don't get it Michael,maybe there's a language barrier.Move on as in "don't ask any more questions" or move on as in "proceed,everything is cool" ??
If you check the picture I posted I have the PCBs made and will start populating soon,but I don't just want to paint by numbers and although I know I will not become an EE by asking questions I decidedly get some benefit from Peter's answer.

I have built other stuff,like guitar tube amps but SS is new to me so I ask.

Sorry, I only want to encourage you to finish that project, because it's worth the efford. :grin:
Proceed, everything is cool! :grin:

Thanks,I kind of got the idea that I was getting on your nerves!(LOL),which is totally possible.Once I get the first couple of the simpler projects off the ground I will have more confidence to tackle the ssl and others.
Thanks for the encouragement and help
