HI Folks.
I finally decided to dip my toes into building an ACA mini amp,
I assembled the PC and believe all the components are installed properly. not the best looking solder joints but they seem to be OK, however I can't seem to get it to power up.
I tested the power supply and it does test at the proper voltage. 23.88vdc.
The power light blinks slightly every 4 seconds but doesn't stay on.
Also, when I plug the power supply in, an arc jumps from the outer barrel on the plug to the outer wall of the input jack.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to trouble shoot the issue.
Thanks in advance.
Richard
