Your DC conditions look spot on by the way.

dmm at DCmV with probes touching = zero ..
removed the teflon cap, no difference ... still variable indication at the DCmV position .. guess I have to recheck the rca's/pot grounding scheme ... which is pretty much as the one at post #1064 Last edited by DimZ; 26th December 2012 at 06:10 PM. |

Some DC settling during first minutes reflecting to the output caps when not connected to lower load as a main amp probably. Mine does the same. No worries I guess. Watch it over a 50 to 100K pseudo output load simulating an amp over 15 mins.

it is strange that it is constantly changing though ...
tomorrow I'll give it a try with a gc and some cheap speakers ... |

It would take a scope to make sure there is no waveform, but the norm is to go up and then go low over some minutes if it is just reflecting a DC drift as the various circuit blocks and supply warm up and settle.

I am not easily worried there is much chance its about something peculiar, its a non loop feedback very simple circuit to do particular funnies. With electronics and various layouts you never know on the other hand, but no, slim chance.

oops .....
it seems that when I changed the sockets and resoldered the parts yesterday I took the output before the 5k anode reistor and not after ... ![]() will fix that tomorrow ... Last edited by DimZ; 26th December 2012 at 06:51 PM. |
