I finally got my half-naked META42 built and it's making me nervous. Listening to it from my PCDP, it sounds great, full spectrum. From my Sonica, low treble on up is rolled off and vocals are coming through a washing machine. It sounds horrible. Bass is fine.
From my PCDP, it sounds awesome into my V6s. Voltage at the TLE is split +9/-9. Voltage from ground to rails (after first BUF) is +4/-13. But it still sounds good. There's a fairly loud pop (delayed right to left) when I turn the amp off. Resistance between rails and ground is negative (caps still discharging?) then increases to 10k ohms within 30 seconds or so.
Details: I used the values in the original schematic PDF on Tangent's page. OPA2132 amp, single BUF634's on power and each output. R9 populated. R7=100 ohms.
This is too much for my brain to handle at this time of night; maybe tomorrow it will be perfectly obvious. Any suggestions would help me out a lot. Thanks.
