I built what is essentially the Welborne hybrid linestage (Alan Kimmel's design) that was featured in Glass Audio (1993 I think). I liked it better than the AVA 12AX7/mosfet design which I had borrowed. I later received a old copy of Welborne's design/mod catalog from a friend who was clearing out his library. Basically the cathode resistors were a lower value than what I'd used but was otherwise the same. It is a really nice design and I'd recommend it over the above AVA, various Counterpoint hybrid designs and (sorry Joe) the Curcio Daniel 2. Sort of a nice sonic middle ground between good SS and totally tube designs. Oh yes, it won't cost much to build one either. I strongly recommend you pick up a PCB FROM welborne as soon as they are available again.Oh yeah, I like a all tube SSRP a bit better, but I still use Welborne/Kimmel linestage off and on, especially if I have a particularly "dark" sounding recording.
