Preamp rolling question...?

Post by zozoe »

greetings... on this pdf below, regards to only channel 2 (OD w/master), would it be V1 or V2 that would better temper that channel, which is too saturated with the stock 12AX7's? I did try an AY7 in V1, & it definitely worked some,,,, but my question is would it be both V1 & 2, or either one more that the other? Lastly, would using an AT7 in the PI slot, V4, also contribute?
Many thanks in advance~ ॐ💃

Are there any voltage dividers to drop the signal between the stages? V2 is gonna be slammed hard, probably too hard, if both gain controls are turned up past half way. It also depends on wether those gain stages have bypassed cathodes though. Schematic?

Suggestion.
It’s high time you got yourself a signal generator and a Oscilloscope.
