Frying R35 - SOLVED!

When powering up for the first time, I blew R35. I built a pair, so I tested the second preamp... No problems.

I checked my joints, reflowed the solder on anything that looked suspicious and replaced R35. Powered up... Blew again!

I plan to go through things more methodically, but until then, any thoughts on likely culprits?

Thanks!
Chris

I reversed Q1 and Q2. All better now. They sound great . . . Thanks, Tim!
