Hi,
I built seven Kits of the 566-2 over the last days and all of them had c19 (1u) missing. Every kit had a 100n left, so i put that in there and it seems to work. Is that a new revision or do i need a 1u for c19?

When listening to the pres as well as measuring they seem quite dark. There is a -3db shelf in the highend, is that normal? The 566-2 i built a few months ago has the same frequency response. 

Best regards 
Mathias

The C19 value of 100n is correct. It only needs to be changed to 1u if the clip LED doesn't turn off when there is no signal.

There is a -3db shelf in the highend, is that normal?
No it is not normal. the -3dB attenuation should be above 40kHz.
How did you measure it?
Check C10: 22pF, marking: 220
