Here is where I'm at so far...just need a few more caps and to wire a few more sockets, then the front speaker inputs and ready to fire.

I'm also going to use the 5V AC tap as I mentioned in another post to wire a LED, I went and got a small bridge rectifier and a 1000uf electrolytic cap. I have a layout below. The rectifier has a spot for 2 AC leads, but since I have one do I just ground the other side as I have shown in my layout.

Thanks.

Build looks excellent. Nice job.

No, No No!! Dont ground that wire! Connect the 5VAC Yellow/White to one AC terminal on the rectifier and the 0VAC Yellow to the other. It is shared by the 6.3VAC secondary.

It didn't make sense to me, but the guy at the electronics store said to do it that way, and after I showed him the schematic, he said to ground it....glad I asked

Thanks as always Stephen!!

Sorry to go offtopic...

Coco do you get your electro caps and resistors from JustRadios?
