Sounds marvelous!

Here's how I'm wiring up my 1590As----actually works out really well with the PCB on top of the jacks.

Man, very sweet!

I just built a GGG phase 45 and stuffed it into a 1590b (it was designed for a 125b). I might do one of these to save even more real estate. The GGG has a volume drop when engaged.

Do you notice any decrease in volume with this one?

Couple things -

I did not have a noticeable drop in volume when engaged, but I'll look at the schem again and suggest a possible mod for increasing output level, if desired.

The PCB is done and can be submitted for production with the next batch. On that note, I might re-evaluate just exactly what the next batch is going to be. A couple of projects which I thought were finished I may want to spend some more time on, and projects that I thought were a ways off turned out to be more or less done (esp. a number of baby boards).

I'll try to get a more concrete plan for the next batch and get it posted in a couple of days. I will be including at least a couple of baby boards, though. There were a lot of requests in the Feb. batch "poll" so I want to take those into consideration too.

YOU ARE KILLING ME WITH THESE.  ;D Amazing as always, Brian!

+1 for baby boards ASAP. I will take all the baby boards you can put out. And then I will play with them like this. (http://images.wikia.com/memoryalpha/en/images/2/2e/Ben_Lum.jpg)
