The Taylor schematic in it's most recent rendition will have everything right... you can grab the latest from Ron Worley's post on the Trainwreck files...Markusv wrote:** I have the Taylor Schematic Version AO. Is that right?
...So back to my original issues with the PT that has no 5V heater taps... If I did go with the SS rectifier, can I simply use that as if in a liverpool and do the rest of the line-up of Cap filtering and choke?
Look for a HiFi quality output tranny - equivalent to the Dynaco if you want to capture the Rocket vibe.
**So that would typically be something with ultralinear taps that I just insulate and tuck away...

With no 5V tap you either have to add a stand alone 5V transformer or go with the SS rectifier... the Liverpool is a good guide for that.
The output transformers that these amps use was not intended for guitar amps initially. It is the winding protocol on these that makes them a bit different... rhinson is the real transformer expert here on the forum and he can explain all this better than I can.
There are lots of these being shipped out and built with right now so soon we should have some data points on their performance.
