RIP Dave Wilson
It got a little ugly over here: https://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=158025.0 Suffering from cancer is nothing you want to witness, two of my buddies just passed from it, 60 and 61 years, watching their decline was horrible. RIP Dave Wilson.

335VDC is where mine’s at, there will be a plus-minus 5 volt swing or so during your dial-in, that is normal, the trim pot is sensitive, as long as it’s in that range your good.
