From the output of the pre-amp, the microphone signal is sent down two different paths. It feeds both one pole of Sl-a and the phase-inverter. The phase inverter is nothing more than a second NE5532 configured as a unity-gain inverting op-amp (IC2-a). The output of IC2-a is connected to the other pole of Sl-a. That way, Sl-a can select either the inverted or the non-inverted signal. The selected signal on Sl-a’s common pole goes to potentiometer R14-a. That potentiometer sets the level of the microphone signal feeding the headphone amplifier.

Nails should be hand sanded and coated with a rust inhibitor primer, followed by at least 2 coats of paint. Resin staining can be cleaned using a mixture of equal parts denatured alcohol and water; rinse thoroughly, and dry. When completely dry, seal using 1-2 coats of stain blocking primer. Allow 48-hours between coats, and then paint as you normally would.
Removing Minor Damage
Class II conditions include crazing (fine cracking), intercoat peeling, solvent blistering, and wrinkling. Crazing is caused when multiple coats of paint become hard, dry, and brittle, and can no longer expand and contract with the substrate material. This results in interconnected hairline cracks in the top layer of paint. Hand or tool sanding followed by a fresh coat of paint will seal moisture from the cracks, even though cracks may still show. Intercoat peeling; usually the result of either improper painting preparation, or incompatibility between coats of paint, such as latex over oil based. The surface should be carefully scraped to remove all loose paint, and then thoroughly cleaned. Apply a high quality oil based primer once completely dry, and then either an oil base or latex paint. Solvent blistering. A rarely-seen error in paint application, caused when solvent-rich paint is applied in direct sunlight. The surface dries too quickly; solvents are trapped beneath the dried film. As they come to the surface, they cause blistering. Any blisters should be cut open to determine whether they are caused by moisture or solvents. If another layer of paint is visible beneath, the problem is probably solvent blistering; if bare wood is underneath it is likely due to moisture. This can be remedied by scraping or sanding to a sound surface, and repainting; avoid painting in direct sunlight. Wrinkling – another error in paint application caused when the top layer dries before the layer underneath. This can be caused by several factors: * Applying paint too thick * Not allowing adequate drying time between coats * Improper brushing * Applying paint in excessive heat conditions. The output of the headphone amplifiers is coupled to output jack J3 through R21. That resistor provides overload protection to IC3-a in case the output is shorted. If you have never used an op-amp for driving headphones before, you are in for a nice surprise. The NE5532 will supply a 10-volt rms signal into a 600-ohm load with very little distortion. That works out to 166 mW of power. Most personal stereos only supply 20 to 30 mW of power to headphones. Wrinkling is corrected by scraping or sanding to a smooth finish, and then repainting following paint manufacturer recommendations. Removing Excessive Damage Class III conditions consist of peeling to bare substrate, or severe cracking or alligatoring. These conditions require complete removal of existing paint. Peeling most commonly occurs on wood substrates; caused when moisture collects between the paint and substrate, greatly affecting paint adhesion. Peeling usually begins as blisters that accelerate as moisture swells wood substrates. This breaks down adhesion, resulting in cracking and peeling. 1.
