Z-Pre Quesitons
#1
Hi I'm interested in knowing a bit more about the Z Pre-amp design.  From the description it says it's Soldano inspired?  I'm assuming that it does away with the cathode follower to lower the tube count and make the EQ more effective?   

I'm looking to be build something with the gain level of SLO-100 but smoother and fuller and sweeter sounding---a little less fizzy than the SLOs I've heard.   Will the Z-Pre amp work for that sort of thing?  Are there any suggestions about places in the circuit to tweak?  I'm interested to hear people's experience with it.  Thanks everyone!
