I got a couple of wrong wattage resistors so I'll have to wait for the right ones I just ordered. I thought I'd get new Power and standby switches while I was at it and a pile of fresh hook up wire.

I may, or may not have gotten a rise in my Levi's.

You sure you don't need LLL to come tell you what you are doing wrong?

Thanks for the compliments guys. I hope it turns out that well.
I was just posing this going through my quad box. It's a 400 watt box and the best I've got for it is 100 watts.
I'm imagining this making the box work and move some serious air.
It's a stereo box too so I could run both heads into it . huge grin

Well, we will know real quick when the amp is done. We'll be able to hear it from the here!

Fuck I just realized I've made a mistake on the phase inverter heaters. I will have to fix that.

It looks right, if the PI is the one in the middle. 4 and 5 are the heaters, and 9 is the center tap. Or am I looking at it backwards?
