Hi-Fi tube amp kit from China
#14

I began the wiring. One of my holdups was not having the wire I wanted. The wiring in the kit was all one color and stranded. Terrible! So, I ordered various color, solid wire. I broke everything down into (what I think are) simple, logical steps. I started with the AC input wiring. I found my steps all out of order in this section when I started Icon_think , so I redid order as I went through the steps. I added a couple that I had originally planned later in the instructions. I made some corrections and updates. I also neglected to diagram the AC connector, so a few minutes with the Fluke, and I had the terminals figured out. After all this, here is what I ended up with:
   
After studying several Hi-Fi circuit schematics I decided to add line safety caps. May not actually need them, but I had them on hand and it seemed like the logical thing to do.

Next, I moved on to the filament wiring. Here, my instructions went smoothly. I will update my diagrams as I made a few minor changes. It's one thing to do it on paper and from pictures, but can be something totally different when it's hands on. I have been following the original posted picture best I can in routing the wire, esp around the small signal section.
   

After this, I went to the B+ wiring. This went very smoothly. I only made a very minor change in the routing of a couple wires. Not hardly noteworthy.
   
This is where I quit for the night.

If I could find the place called "Somewhere", I could find "Anything" Icon_confused
