* The thin yellow and black wires are the inputs to
the powered subwoofer.
* The fat cable is for the speaker.
* The toroid on the interconnect is a made of TDK H7C4. This common mode
choke helps remove some of the grain from the system. There are 4 turns
on the interconnect, 3 are visible. Each pass through the center hole is
1 turn. A Fair-rite toroid 5978003801 from Mouser should work just as
good. (12/30/00 picture of Stock Amp)
I really could not get a good clear picture with
the camera I borrowed this time.
There are three nylon cable posts holding the large 100 uF 500V
capacitor down. You can see the lossy Parafeed capacitor and resistors,
the HV snubber, the 2A3 filament bypass, and the extra filtering for the
driver tube and its filament. I cable tied the fuse wires because I was
worried with all the bending around it was seeing that the wire would
break at one of the solder joints (12/30/00).
Below is a different view of the bottom (12/30/00). I'll shorten and tidy up the leads once I'm done playing around with parts as much as I current am doing. The top SCR (lossy Parafeed) capacitor will soon be RTV'd the SCR capacitor below it.
