i have see the led arangement 10k led 2k if you look to the pcb you will see it is not exactly like this( but this is for the led)
c6 in the schematic is not polarized but if you look the pics you will find a 1uf polarized
the rest look ok but i have not finished all the verification i can see ^^

My PCB is not a direct copy of the Storm - the bypass LED has been standardized compared to my other projects, and the 1uf polarized capacitors have been converted to non-polar since they are better and more reliable. (There's no good reason to use a 1uf polarized capacitor in the signal path unless you're trying to save money.)

Linked in the very first post - several angles of the populated PCB as well as front and back with components removed.

Isn't it silly that they kept the Zobel network at the output of the 386 even though this isn't directly driving a speaker? Well, unless you are, which is perfectly possible.
