Hope everyone had a nice thanksgiving.
Larry, I got the voltages you asked for, still waiting for the cap to make my signal tracer.
R95 is a big resistor on top of the chassis it has -28v after the resistor before c54. Since this is a negative voltage am I correct to assume it is a bias circuit for V1V2 ?
I have 440v @ c51
I have 496v @ the junction of D4/c52/r93.
Something odd to add. With my N.O.S. 6an8 tubes the sound is much worse, much weaker and my right channel becomes way lower than the left.
When I put back the O.E. tubes both channels are pretty close, sound is pretty good its just weak, won't get very loud.
The tubes they sent were two different brands, RCA and GE, so if matching is important these are likely not. Should I order another pair from a different vendor?
I played with the scope for a while but could not get a sensible trace from the little hook on the front that says "cal .3v" which I assume is a point for calibrating. Anyway probably best to stick with the Pioneer and not get sidetracked trying to figure out this scope.
