2204 with Reduced Filtering @ Screens & P.I.

[syscokid]

Thoughts? Or better yet: Any real experience with altered filtering with this circuit?

Stock filtering: 100uF (50/50) at Mains, 50/50 at Screen and PI, 50/50 at both Preamps. I’m itching to try 32/32 for Screen and PI, and leave the other nodes alone. Looking to add some squishiness when pushing the amp hard (MV at 6 to 7).

Screen and PI supply filter can makes the biggest difference in my experience. Preamp filter a close second. I prefer the 50uF filtering. The attack and response gets too squishy and "brown" with 32uF for me.

You may like it with a stock-ish 800 circuit. When you start pushing a lot of preamp gain you definitely want the 50uF filter or it gets messy.
