This 220V version uses 0.47uF signal caps instead of the 0.22uF ones that the 120V version uses, as zer061zer0 already verified for us. The HP output caps are bigger in this schematic and they are also shown being bypassed. The most interesting difference is that the two resistors that set the operating points of the output stage (G2a,b) are significantly different. I downloaded the trial version of PSPICE last night with the intention of trying to simulate this amp. The Headwize article on optimizing the very similar Morgan Jones Amp using PSPICE is fascinating and I wanted to follow the same path for the 708B to see if it could benefit from some fine tuning as well. Unfortunately the 708 is too big for the trial version to allow. zer061zer0, could you verify the values of R7 and R8 in your amp for me please? Thanks again for obtaining this for us to use. |
