Getaudio.eu I did write Victor after I posted here, and even though I only purchased my tubes and coupling capacitors from him, he is still...
Interrestingly this point starts off with 0 V when powering up, until gradually rising! Sounds like a tube problem, right?
Just passed my 200 hour mark on my baby and was warming up to write my impressions when the fuse blew... After testing continuity errors on the...
Well finally it's fixed.. it must have something to do with the cable management from the power supply, as suggested by Beefy. Now none of the...
That's very concerning. I have checked all the values internally, and all seem within margin. The values for the two power tunes varied by 5 V,...
When the amp was ON: Measuring from ground (water tubes in house) to screw head on front panel I get a reading of 52 Vac. For Vdc the reading was...
I get a electric tingling from touching the chassis. Its quite pronounced. I wonder why.. grounding issue of sort perhaps? I also get it when...
Solved and fixed: problems with a capacitor. Already it sounds stunning. This is my first DIY audio project and my first tube amp! Thanks...
Ah wow! That's perfect. And I just finished... the amp worked AMAZING for 20 min then suddenly the right channel dropped out.. gutted! Edit: My...
EagleWings, is the position of the yellow jumper sockets in the image you showed where it needs to be for your mod?
Got ya! I thought the idea was to add a cable somehow, but it's just about direction. Thanks a ton:bow:
Noted! I am installing some audio note mylar coupling capacitors to replace the stock ones. In the instruction, it says "For those capacitors...
Well underway! Do you think it is okay to use the leftover wires from the big 5W resistors as jumpers, or is a copper wire preferrable? See...
Very useful information!
Okay, got you. I am starting to suspect that the stock headphone out with the original resistor network should be enough for the HE6. Does the...
Again, thanks for your insight. I will keep you updated on my results. My 8900 is currently traveling the world, so it might take a bit.
Makes alot of sense. I will start with the R123/223 first and see how it goes. May I ask, are you not afraid of damaging the amp when bypassing...
I think this is the perfect solution for me. Thanks again!
I don't know yet. This is the HE6se v2, which are a bit easier to drive than the OG HE6, I believe. My thought was that if 8900 is powerful enough...
The 8900 is on its way, and I can't wait! The Lundahl's amorphous, Cossor WE2A3, Sylvain 12BH7A are also on their way. Thank you EagleWings for...
