SLO100 Power Supply

Post by ViperDoc »

For those who know Soldano, I see the two schematics on EL34world.com either power the PI off of “B1”—a node that doesn’t exist on the schematic—or “B2”, the same node that powers the CFs on both sides of the effects loop. Furthermore, the voltage drop listed from the screens to the PI node is about 120 VDC across a 10K resistor. Is there supposed to be a separate node for the loop and PI?

See here:

Just plug it in, man.

The loop and the PI are powered from the same node, the one after the 10k, where the two preamp branches originate.

That amp is running those number 2 grids dam hard for not being UL!
When I die, I want to go like my Grandfather did, peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming like the passengers in his car!

The max stated design spec for a 6L6GC screen is 450 vdc.

yes, but with 1k screen resistors and typically sovtec 5881s? the power supply should sag some but not much here
