RE: Help needed: Significant Voltage drop after PS caps

There has to be a short somewhere. If you are testing this with a load, disconnect the load and take your voltages. With no current draw there should be no voltage drop across anything and if there is it should almost be insignificant. Also, make sure your caps are oriented properly(positive to B+/negative to ground) unless you are using non-polarized caps. Then it doesn't matter. But I'm sure if they were oriented improperly the caps would blow up.
