Cj11 standby switch
Posted: 05 Apr 2013, 03:37
I am about to start building this amp, thanks to you guys for the schematic. Just wondering about the placement of the standby switch, is it in the right place? Thanks in advance.
If you want your question to be answered, you should post a link to the schematic.

Answer:
It is probably correct, but it is a BAD placement. The first PSU capacitor should be placed on the *other* side of the switch (the output of the rectifier).
Better yet, don't bother with the standby switch (like the original 5E3), it doesn't do anything very useful, it's just a mute switch.
