Title: Slightly High Raw B+
Post by: ambd1 on June 28, 2025, 12:35:33 PM

Hi All,

I´m a newbie for amplifier kits. I have soldered cables and transformer terminals in the past, so I´m improving my soldering skills, but this is my real first build.

I am going slow and it is all going well. I just performed the Raw B+ test. My incoming AC voltage is 124-125 volts. On my B+ test I get 326-327 volts DC.

I have checked all the resistors and capacitors and it all looks OK.

Is that Raw B+ OK?

Thanks,

Alan

Yes, your line voltage is a tad high, but that's acceptable.

Thanks, Paul.
