Zen V8 Troubleshooting - Page 2

Hey Steen,

I think you're right, there must be some mistake i'm overlooking.

I'm going to rebuild the circuit again later today if i get some time,
and can find another 25K pot

...i was wiring P1 incorrectly.

maybe one day i'll learn to wire a potentiometer correctly.

right now i'm trying to get the circuit dialed in.

I'll post an update when i get the other channel built and the thing
in some kind of chassis. I'm curious to give it a listen and compare it
to my Zen amp. (version 1 with PSU updates)

Moe, not all trimpots acts the same. I usually put my Multimeter on the pins to see excactly how a particular pot behave's. Just for safety measures

i thought i'd revive this thread instead of making a new one...

i found this interesting article....

In order to make a truly DIY Zen V8
i think a DIY lightbulb is in order!

How to DIY a lightbulb

...if i could ever get around to making a chasis for my Zen V8 i could
finish it. maybe i'll just finish it sans-chasis and give it a listen!
