Adapting a Marshall PT for Soldano Clone

Post by ryanf » Fri Feb 08, 2008 7:13 pm

Hey I'm starting my Soldano SLO50 (schematic seen here:http://homepage.mac.com/WebObjects/File ... ing15.html) , and I have the Marshall power transformer seen here: http://www.tubesandmore.com/scripts/fox ... m=P-TM-P50

One the schematic it says use a "faux center tap" by using 2 100 Ohm resistors. Could someone please help me out as for what to do? Do I just ground the center one, and put a 100 resistor from each main wire to a point, and use that as the center tap?

Also, if I dont want to bother with elevated DC current, do I just use the outside wires to the heaters and ground the middle?

Thanks in advance!


-Ryan
