all diodes unspecified are 1n4148...
pays to read the small print...

i have these....is 4148 the same as 1n4148....they look the same as the one i removed...

Sure, either that or bug out all the fried components...

I guess all the weak components died , (Gene did not want them in their) I think they started out wrong ,, weeks ago . I tried steering it back from the ground up,, I think this Funny looking board has better traces than the 400 II and 700 II wow every time I go in their,, Wire fall off and some times after unsoldering components the traces lift up LOL every time I flip the board back up I look for broken wires.

Gene you said that Yesterday and you were up late ,
Here the pic everything is checked out expect the Full Comp parts vs the Q

 

[MusicSteve]

ok.

I like to use a Tooth brush and I brush everything its amazing the stuff that you can't see that fall out but the fallen solder can the hardest to see and shorts derive out. Also look at the front of the board for anything that also fall in-between stuff and also look at the last output transistor (all) for more fallen solder.

i mean i checked everything....

that is a work of art....anyone can see the experience and desire that went into this design...
joe....you should be proud....
i know i am to have purchased one of your boards...

 

[gene french]

yup

its installed....and of course tested in circuit...

did you touch the top of the board with the iron or just left on a little longer to get the solder to flow up top....
that looks really nice...

Nicely assembled. Your nuts are on the wrong side

backplane????
i read that is the tough one...

on the transistors in the heat sinks????
i am taking notes...

Yes for serious pros...I thought about soldering your nuts in place Gene but then figured we would not have another 83 pages...

Thought you might like the experience of soldering your nuts in place.

gotta learn...better sooner tgan later...
i was wondering if music man got the backplane kit also??

I believe so. We will be in for a treat with his assembly photos, he is a pro...and very willing to be helpful too. Listen well Gene.

Thats why I recommended to throw those original boards into the ocean. Even if you get them to work, it wont last. They be Junk and shit.
