Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

RE: Lead dressing

I think that minimizing connections to posts/ tags/ turrets and keeping components away from metal chassis perimeters as in the Sophia amp is a path to minimizing some adverse effects.

On one hand, it's a band aid for schotty workmanship.
That rats nest, with wire and leads piss poorly dressed can also be the root cause.
We all agree (except xxx) Design, Layout and Parts selection make for a sound implementation without/minimal headaches.
I use solder terminals to make mechanical connections; multiple wires are twisted and wrapped around the terminal.
Sophia builds red-neck dreck at champagne prices.
IMHO/HE of course.:-)

Cheers,
W
