Okay so the board parts numbering is okay. We just have to space the board away from the chassis using the plastic spacers that you have provided. Thanks

Are B+2 and B+4 the place marked 380v on the board and B+1 and B+3 are 250v? Did you have to adjust the recommended 4.7/49.9k resistor values much in the power supply with a gz34 to have acceptable voltages? What is the range that would be okay?

Finally, how much capacitance in the power supply would be to much after the choke? I'm trying to picture how to do the two separate 50/50uf stages that are recommended for each channel. I have a punch so I could even use two multi section JJ caps with clamps to accomplish it and going 100/100 wouldn't be that big of a deal.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Geek, I just wanted to thank you for all the help. I got the amp going and it's really good sounding so far and it only has about 10 hours on it. I tried a few coupling caps and believe it or not liked CDE polyesters with it the most. I wanted a full snappy vintage sound. Maybe I have no taste. haha.

The power supply resistors ended up being 6.8k and 61k with a gz34 for 376/251volts. It's also dead silent without anything playing so you did great on the layout:).

Great to hear!

I'll pass along the congratulations on the layout to the PCB guy.

Snappy vintage sound, eh? How about 716P polyprops? Available at AES.

Cheers!

PS - can you post a couple pics of your amp and board?

I'll have to borrow a camera etc. I have some 716's around that I can swap in but the CDE Polyesters are actually doing pretty well for now at least.

Would anyone who has this installed be willing willing to post a photo (from the wired / underside)? It would be a great reference.

PM sent.

I forgot to mention that the price as of June 1st went to $28.50/ea., due to a new agreement with KTA HiFi.

Cheers!

I still have "Ooops" boards left for the steal-of-a-deal price of $15.00 USD/ea.

All they need are some insulating washers (supplied by me), as the pads touch and there's a non-critical reversal of the grid leak/grid snubber on the input.

Cheers!
