Hey Gene

The brand new chassis you purchased has the meter switch hole already in it right above the RCA input jacks and below the output binding posts.

i have noticed...
on the 8 fin...which has been recapped...
ps cap upgrade...led upgrade...dcp added...
first power on of the day only....produces a noticable hum until the dcp relay engages....has done it since i got it from rob...i kept thinking that each upgrade would eleminate it...it didnt...
it performs as it is supposed to...
ideas???

How can it produce a speaker hum if the DCP relay is open? Shouldn't be able to. So, open it up, and observe the relay. Clear plastic. Can you see it engage and disengage?

understood...
after 2 or 3 seconds you can hear the relay latch...the hum goes away...it only does it first power up...then no more...
when my switches and bias transistors come in...i can compare...i need to change out input jacks too...i bought 2 pair from watts...the 8 fins jacks are very loose...sometimes cut out and i have to wiggle input cable....
