Re: Layout critique?

One other thing, is it likely to be a problem that the connection between the OT and the speaker jacks will cross back over past the power tubes?

Re: Layout critique?

Oh I probably should mention that the pots are being mounted to a separate panel that sits an inch in front of the chassis, so that won't be a problem...
