Derek92994's 700 Ser II White Oak conversion

[Gepetto]

It would be better if you used VR1 and VR2 rather than left and right so we can be sure we are tying it to the schematic.

I am suspecting VR1 to have the bogus voltages but that needs to be confirmed by Darcy

Ok, thanks Joe..

VR1:
C pin: 20.2 (the relays engaged for 2 power ups just now, previously this voltage was 7.6)
C pin 2nd test: relays did not engage, you get 7.6 volts when this happens, meters peg 30 seconds after power down then go down slowly
A pin: 0v
R pin: 2.5v

VR2:
C pin: 0v
A pin: -20.5
R pin: -17.9

Also caps discharge themselves quite fast, down to 1 or 2 volts within 30-60 seconds when the relays do not engage.

Thanks for your advice Joe, cheers

Its been the Perfect Amp

6-1/2 years

Maybe the fans picked up a small particle of metal and threw it inside the amp?

I like your mini-grabbers Darc!
