Hello folks, sorry it's been a while [I'm the OP]..     I completely forgot but my imageshack account, it expired and all my images got deleted.  I managed to salvage a few photos of my DIY cases and reposted them in post #1.     Great job with your cases guys, keep them coming -- Cheers!  ...

good choice blaken. Mine is permanently stationed at work and listen to it everyday. For compatible tubes and reviews, I'd start here. x2 for sprucecanyon!

Hope you're initial setup is a success, let us know how it goes and good luck

You have the primaries wired correctly, but not so sure about your 15-0-15V. It should be: 15V(yellow)-0V(red/orange)-15V(black) See if you have it wired like mine here. Other than that you may have a faulty transformer or a component/diode installed backwards pehaps(?).

Ah I see, are you using the BOM transformer? 115 or 220V?

jjazzy, sounds like there's a short of some kind. Have you taken any voltage readings from the tx filaments?
