Oh yeah, it does much lower. The caps are mislabeled.

Am I doing it wrong? I hope I don't have to start over!

Do you have a supplier for these in the US. It's an easy enough thing to do, so I might as well. McMaster-Carr

I would suggest Belleville washers.

One of the APO that doesn't overlap with the Sony releases

It's alright, you can use the word "voicing".

Burn-in

It would be easier if he could tie the clip to the "bottom" negative rail though - which he can't - unless he floats the scope or uses a battery supply.

The scope readout is adjusted automatically, which is convenient. The P5205 might be a better choice.

I use a Tek P5210.

astroglide59: Ever looked at what Audio Note charges for repairs?

I prefer the K389.

So, if anyone is interested in some of these micro 11-turn trimmers I have decided to go with a different value and have a kings' ransom of 50 ohm left over

I suppose calling them "eneimas" might be close of a trademark violation to the reality of Mikhails's "enigma" cable design.

I failed at cutting a round hole. But it works well enough.

Actually I will get these made for me, but need to validate a few values. It was a pretty quick job, much faster than doing it by hand. a plate wasn't viable because there are parts on both sides.

(makeshift board heater) Then there were three. Now need a jig to be able to apply the paste to the bottom side - perhaps a piece of plywood with a cutout? As you can see, the middle pin of the transistors and the tabs wouldn't flow. These are multilayer boards with that large copper area exposed. I also had to "reheat" the boards during the process. I am not confident I really got good contact on the j-hook trimmers. I will just apply hand solder to these parts likely.

Interestingly, the unit came from Japan and they don't connect the earth pin at all. I figured I would do that at some point.

Looking to buy a used pair. If you have any leads, please let me know!

... Need to catch back up

Ever made something real quick, going against your feeling that it might be a bad idea? Here is one I did today. It isn't as bad as it could be - it was plugged into a fused variac - but still...
