Another Piccolo question, if I may.....
« on: 14 Dec 2009, 03:23 am »
Regarding resistors #R10x and #R11x, the "Parts To Buy" list calls for resistors tag R10x to be 232 ohms, yet the resistor lay-out sheet that comes with the kit shows the R10R/L locations to have 221 ohm resistors, the same as R11x.

Which is correct? What value resistor goes into locations R10R and R10L?

Thanks all.

The design was originally spec'd for 221 Ohms and that is reflected in the schematic.  Since then, there has been talk of instead using 232 Ohms.  See the thread

http://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=48783.0

where Jim mentions using 232 Ohms in a posting.  You will want to use 232 ohms.

Thank you for this! As I have very little formal training in electronics most of that thread is over my head, but I understood the bottom line, and I will install the 232 ohm resistors tonight (I can, however, read electrical schematics and ladder diagrams for larger equipment, so I'm not totally clueless ....only "mostly"!  :lol:)
