I built another gar2520 opamp for my 3rd #500SeriesAPIClone . Prototype no. 1. The one that lives in my lab to test mics with. I don't know why I only ordered parts for 2 opamps the first time around, but I remedied that. I have a ton of opamps of other designs, so I had been using it with a spare, but now it's as it should be.
I also changed out the inductors in the 2 FET847 boards to the smaller ones they didn't have in stock when I originally ordered the parts.

Got the dryer power cord all sorted, and now I have a fully functioning washer/dryer pair.
This weekend I'll finish prototype #3 of the API preamp project, and if all goes well I'll finish up the KM84 based LDC mic.
I also have been in contact with a friend on a preamp project from the Amek M2500 console. I've worked on a variety of Amek consoles over the years including the 9098i, Mozart, Angela, and Big, but don't have any Amek mic preamps in my locker.

OK, I finished prototype number 2 of the 500 series API preamp. I'll post pics some other time. I'm taking my time this weekend, and I'm taking a lot of breaks and chatting with the band who is tracking their new album in our studio.
I also got some parts needed to finish the FET847 mic which I'll hopefully be able to work on next weekend.

Need to relocate some mounting holes on the PCBs since I'm still working with REV1 prototype boards, then solder the transformers. Shortly after that I should have 2 more working API prototypes for the 500 series.
I'll work on that this weekend.
Then if I get lucky, next weekend, I might be able to finish one of those FET847 mics, which is the Neumann KM84 amplifier circuit modded for large diaphragm capsules. They're kinda like inexpensive mini U87i's.

Re-introduction:
In terms of classic recording equipment clones that I've built, I have a bunch of SSL, API, and Neve mic preamps, and I'm developing my own API clone with a friend for the 500 Series. Here are some hashtags:
