Hi, congratulations, I hope to be successful too.
I also need help with the ELLA beacuse I do not have the instructions.
Can somebody provide me the instructions for the KIT?
I have seen several schemes, so I think I can understand most of it, like 22k potentiometer for bias from the 50 Volts to C connections on PCB but some aspects are unclear.
I know it is a tough job to scan the manual, but it will be very helpful if somebody can provide me the instructions.
Thanks

hi antonio, didnt you get the instructions with your kit?
Sorry, what a shame it was in the Box !
hey alberto, well you got that sorted out now so its time to study the manual and get cracking. i had fun doing mine although there were times when things got a bit hairy as you can see from my posts but i had more fun than hairy situations ;) - in fact had so much fun that im kinda having withdrawal symptons from not having solder fumes to inhale.
cheers
Ended up and working with a very nice sound.
I have only some doubts:
The actual bias resistance measured is 10 to 13 ohms depending on the pot. Do I need to adjust the bias corrspondingly, that means 0.4V for 10 ohm and some 0.52V for the 13 ohm to have the same current?
The power transfor wiring colours are brown=0, blue=110V and red=120V,my ella is wired for 220V but actual net Voltage is 234V is it better if I rewire?
Some times the soft start relé is not activating, some times yes, is this linked to the power transformer wiring and the actual voltage on relé?
Output volume is quite high, would it be better if I change to 100k potentiometer for better regulation?
cheers
Alberto
hi alberto, im afraid i cant answer your queries - im very much a newbie and still learning the ropes - the best persons to advise you would be brian cherry or zarniwoop or any of the othe forummers who have a better technical grasp of things. may i suggest that you re-post your message addressing either of these 2 gentlemen.
cheers
