Title: Voltage check on Stereomour
Post by: Follow the white rabbit on May 14, 2013, 10:31:34 AM

Hello, just finished soldering and resistor check positive. Tubes glow, leds glow. Nothing is smoking or hot.
But I read between A1 and A4 and also C1 and C4 1.8VAC and not 2.5VAC like in the description. Does this have to do with the 240V power transformer?
Just measured Kreg on both sides: 2.48VDC both sides...
Terminal strips 5,11,16 and 20 show 58.2VDC
A1, A4, C1, C4 show 58.2VDC

I do not have a meter giving excess to 500VDC. It only goes to 250VDC.
Should I try to listen to music or get a new meter for the remaining Voltage checks?
Greetings from germany!
Chris

I listen to "Perles Musicales" with Wolfgang Boettcher on Cello and Ursula Trede-Boettcher on piano (RBM Label)
I hear not only a highly professional representation of beautiful music but also the very natural sound of these acoustic instruments in that perticular surrounding... ;)
Bottlehead makes great sounding amp kits very well designed and illustrated for building...even for the not talented solderer...hahaha
Many Thanks!
