Re: Homebrew - power amp design
I really don't think that eliminating negative  
 
feedback will give you "more distortion at lower  
 
volumes".  
 
 
 
In fact, the only thing you might get is "mush".  
 
 
 
You can increase the feedback resistor (ie 100K to 120K) for move overall gain, but it won't be at lower  
 
volumes.  
 
 
 
I say you also save up for a speaker attenuator.
