Traynor Mark 3
#9
The mains power in my own home is usually 120V (1.043); that makes sense since the YGL3 schematic lists the B+ as 436V and I'm getting 455V on average (and on my latest reading).

Before KOC's posts, I had already changed the first reservoir cap to a pair of 100uF units in series, but I think that I'll keep using a 450V cap for the screens node.

As an aside, I created a simple PCB that holds two 18mm-diameter caps and a dropping resistor (or jumper, if the caps are to be placed in parallel on the same node). I'll use at least two of these in this Traynor.
