I don't know why they put the preamp filter cap ground on the power amp star ground. That doesn't make sense.

Sorry Geoff, Brownnote only produced layouts, no schematics.

Just drew this up for you off your layout in case you'd like it. It looks accurate to me, but as always, all eyes are welcome.

I moved the 470K pair ground to where it "should be", with the PT cathode bypass cap and resistor. Enjoy.

Thanks ViperDoc. That's a fascinating schematic 8)

I wonder if anyone has sound clips for it. I'm keen to find out how its breakup sounds.
