Hi,

I've been reading treads here for a little while now. Learned quite a bit actually.

I've got a pretty basic question : I understand that the HT that goes from the main tranfo to the GZ32 rectifier in a quad II classic is AC. Still, is it important to connect both wire on the right Pins ?

According to this diagram: 6http://www.dc-daylight.ltd.uk/Valve-Audio-Interest/Schematics/QUAD-II-Valve-Amp-Relaid.pdf

HTa goes to the pin 4 and HTb goes to the pin 6

Since I'm not sure which is which on the transformer, what would happens if I mistakingly reverse them?

Thanx in advance for your help

Yves
