JMP 50W build with NOS components

Post by Dries » Sat Dec 20, 2014 10:31 am

Hello all!

A while ago I collected a pre wired chassis on ebay with some nice components for a fairly good price. Ordered some IGPW transformers for it and installed them a few days ago. Nice sound ! I experimented with some lower filtering (now 32uF on mains, screens and PI). Also B+ voltage can be adjusted by either using the 240V tap or 230V primairy, or the 325V vs 350V taps on de secondary. Still not shure what I like the best, but it's at the lowest B+ now (415V). I think I might go back to the 450V setting. Any recommendations? Thanks!

Lately I have been using the low voltage (400v) taps on my 1986 build because I like the slightly earlier breakup that they give. It's really just personal preference and whichever sounds and feels the best to you.
