Nice looking build. Well done!

I'll second what Ian suggested, basically starting from scratch. Even if you find a BOM I strongly recommend verifying each component on it for accuracy to avoid possibly having to pause the build waiting for a missed or incorrect component to come in. This requires basically the same effort as star...

Sounds great Ryan, I LIKE it!

Here is another OT option. This OT works with either a 12AU7 (22k) or 12BH7 (11.5k). Pay attention to speaker impedance if changing between the two types of tubes.

MOJO1580

And here is a schematic of this OT in use.

Otherwise, you can probably deburr with a little piece of sandpaper, or manually twisting the next size bit in the hole. You can do this! I have a set of these (different brand but same. 82° countersink/deburring bit. One can literally deburr an entire chassis in a matter of minutes with one of the...

I found out today that Amplified Parts are going to stiff me for the 12AX7 as they don’t accept returns on microphonic valves. I was a bit annoyed as I don’t recall asking to purchase a microphonic 12AX7. Yeah, I think I won’t be buying Mullard again. I don't buy ANY tubes from Amplified Parts any ...

To clarify I only closed the tabs with TAG, I left several others open that did reopen when I restarted Chrome. I think the key was to clean out not only cookies but anything cached pertaining to TAG.

BTW, this is what I'm seeing wrt missing graphics: Anybody else seeing this? Response is extremely slow too. I was seeing this too but the other day I completely cleared out TAG from my browser and it's been working great since. I'm using Android (Samsung tablet and phone) with Chrome browser. Here...

Are you by any chance using a light bulb limiter?

You may have an out of spec transformer.

I'm not sure what was done, but wanted to say the forum has began working GREAT for me since last evening.

I've been having a bunch of issues with the site too...

Looks like your heater voltages are a bit low. I like to measure the heaters on a 9 pin tube while in Standby using pins 4/5 to 9. 6.3 vac is ideal.

This is all without speaker output...

Is anything connected to the speaker out?

Never mind I see no tubes

What power tubes do you plan to use? (102 uses 6L6 and 183 uses EL34)

Glad you got it sorted out.

All of my amps have some hiss when cranked up, I think it's normal. Some tubes have more hiss/noise than others, especially in V1 position.
