Zero Gain Line Stage Amplifier
No gain, no pain. Many audiophiles prefer to use passive attenuators, which have zero gain. However, there are circumstances that demand the use of a high current line stage. So here is the design goal: no voltage gain, but a healthy output current delivery.     Schematic

Medium Gain Line Stage Amplifier
This line stage uses the Constant Current Draw Grounded Cathode (CCDGC) amplifier topology. A Grounded Cathode amplifier cascaded into a Cathode Follower...what could be more obvious? Here is where the twist comes in: the Cathode Follower's output is not taken directly at its cathode.     Schematic

Medium Gain Phono Stage for MM Cartridges
The objective is a two stage phono preamplifier that uses interstage passive RIAA equalization for use with medium output moving magnet cartridges.    Schematic
