New Build

[njwrecks]

Used Edcor 245 V PT Edcor Choke, A 470 OT. 2 150's and 4 6PS caps.
Sounds great - goes from clean to break up smoothly. RJ's chasis and Trans.

It is nice, I will have to find time to work on my Rocket. I pulled it down when it wasn't working out. I have a few new ideas to try on it though.

Noise prior to the PI was my main issue. If I can get rid of that I'll be laughing!

This is what it use to look like.

It looks good from here- what kind of noise? if you use a 12ay7 in the first tube does the noise get less?

Looks like you've grounded half the smoothing caps to the same ground as the preamp board , whereas I believe they should be grounded at the same place as the other smoothing capacitors, down near the rectifier. It matters.

The earthing is per Allynmey's Rocket clone which is taken from a Trainwreck Rocket amp. I have seen the other earthing in another real Rocket amp.

I went with the split earth as I wanted to keep the earth paths separate.
