The A-120 was the first filter of the A-100 and has been developed ~ 1994.
At this time we stilled payed attention the in/outputs do not distort. In
the course of time the liking of the users changed and they want to have all
possibilities including distortion and higher levels. A simple solution is
to reduce the resistor R15/22k to a lower value to obtain higher levels and
distortion. R15 is located just behind the Audio Level control below the
capacitor C1/10u.
