[sdiy] breadboard, was: Minimum spacing between 1/4" jacks on DOTCOM modules..

[cheater00 .]

Hey Andre, what breadboard do you use there?

Can you guys suggest good breadboards to use for audio?

Of course I am not dreaming of a breadboard that would be acceptable
for designing VCOs.. but maybe filters or preamps or low-freq digital
stuff?

Cheers,
D.
