I've built a Paragon, seems to be working well. The only thing throwing me off is Distortion setting on the DIP switches. The KOT website lists the following setting combinations:
both sides clean boost : off off off off
red side OD, yellow side Boost (factory setting) : ON off off off
red side clean boost, yellow side OD : off off ON off
both sides OD : ON off ON off
both sides DIST : off ON off ON
For either side on my build, if I put switch 1 (or 3) to off and switch 2 (or 4) to ON, as indicated above for Distortion mode, I am getting no sound just like a clicking noise. It seems to me that Distortion mode is engaged on the Paragon when switches 1 and 2 (or 3 and 4) are both switched to ON, albeit the it's not like it turns into super high gain mode or anything.
Is this normal behavior for the Paragon?
