DC on the grid
Hello everybody,
I have fully resored my quad II. And i have 0.25 - 0.26 VDC on the KT66 grids (leaking capacitors). I bought russian pio, the sound is good but they are leaking a bit(and they are quite inexpensive). Is this a problem in your experience ? thank you, Best regards, Luc D. |

I have fully resored my quad II. And i have 0.25 - 0.26 VDC on the KT66 grids (leaking capacitors). ** No way - that amount of DC on the KT 66s grids is NORMAL and as designed. Check the schematic and see how the ( 680K ohms ) grid leak resistors return to a point that is sitting at that DC voltage. .............. Phil |

May i contradict you ?
I have also tested polypropylen caps and the tension was 0.02 - 0.03 VDC on the grid. So i imagine that this is due to the pio caps that are leaking. Anyway from what value of leaking voltage should i replace the caps ? What is the dangerous eaking voltage for my quad ii ? Thank you, BR, Luc D. |
