Andy,

Consider this an intervention.

I think you have been overusing and abusing elipsis "...".

i would argue that doing calculations with improper measurements is in fact a bad way to ensure a couple of watts safety.

it is better to understand where the power is being dissipated.

If it's not the bypass or coupling caps, try lower the bass side of your pickups.

Kevin O'Connor has written a number of books that you might find helpful.

Try these two:

Wayne,

I apologise, I didn't realise peak to peak had been brought.

I should have read JJman's post a little closer.

But we weren't talking about Vpp (peak to peak) we were talking about Vp (peak).

Thanks for confusing the matter even more ...

Skyboltone, We multiply peak voltages by 0.707 to obtain RMS voltages. Since the secondary voltages of power transformers is already given in V RMS, why are you multiplying it by 0.707? This transformer has secondary RMS voltages of 350-0-350, when the primary is 115 VAC. It will have a Vpeak of abo...

Why would you put a 1M in parallel with a 220K resistor?

If 180K is what you need in a circuit, put in a 180K resistor.

Have a look at some datasheets.

The Philips Datasheet from 1969 for the EL34 seems like a good place to start and it's available at the Dr Tube website:

Vnce,

My assmptn would be tht the Edge cntrl wrks mch lke a prsnce cntrl.
