My darkside build thanks to Haberdasher's excellent pcb. I used the tone brightening mods, and D9E's in D1D2 and BAT85s in D3D4 after trying a number of different combos. Sounds awesome to me.

Nice build mate, very tidy in and out. Where did the name come from?

Noun   1.   gloam - the time of day immediately following sunset

D9E is a Russian Ge diode.

Great looking build. I would love to hear an audio demo if you get some time. I have been wanting to build one for some time now. You executed it perfectly.

Ah... makes sense. In fact I may have a couple of those.  ;D

I love the name! I was aware what it meant, and it seems completely appropriate. Well done.
