Hi,

When going through the parts check list on the Kaiju and I was able to identify everything besides the 330Kohm 3W resistor. The only things that were left were these 2 resistors, so I figured they were it. They don't have any written identification and look very different from the 330Kohm 3W resistors used in the direction. Figure I should ask if these are the right thing before I start putting together the C4S boards.

Also, when removing the outer jacket from the Canare wire I hit my elbow and and accidentally cut the whole end off. So I had to splice another piece of the wire to it to make it long enough. I was wondering what size and type of Canare wire it is so I can replace the spliced wire at some point so it doesn't look so ruff. Also, ignore the improperly wired pot. I fixed that after I took the picture.

If you set your meter to resistance and put the probes across one of those resistors, what resistance value do you get?

The Canare is L-2B2AT.

Color code, two orange bands and a yellow. That's a 3, another 3 and a 10k multiplier. Equals 330,000 ohms. Gold band indicates 5% tolerance. It's handy to have a link to a color code chart available.
