Ah didnt see your comment Paul, very interesting, tx!! You mean swap the 300B from one channel to the other?
Am I beating a dead horse? My original question was something like this: let me jump right to my confusion on these specific resistance checks, I will paste directly from my manual to here.
In my manual I see this (I am pasting directly from the manual, as I am trying to understand it and determine if I made a wiring error, or the manual has something transposed)
Resistance checks, p 59-60:
Terminal Resistance
1 starts high, eventually drops to 4R
...
A1 starts high, drops to 4R
A2 greater than 1 00KR (OL)
A3 varies with volume/balance settings, could be 0R to 50KR
A4 5-6R with 300B in socket
...
But on page 52 I see this:
Cut a 2" (50mm) piece of black solid core wire. Strip both ends
¼" (7mm). Attach and solder one end to A4. Attach and solder the
other end to 1 L.
It seems from this information from the manual on page 52 that the resistance at 1L should be the same as A4, since this above step appears to connect 1L with a wire to A4.
Thus I would expect the resistance check for A4 to be the same as for 1, but that is not the case.
In any case I just want to construct a fine working BeePre to replace my aging, but fine in its day, foreplay preamp and am eager to do so!
Tx!
