STEP 13 – MD-circuit board – 

resistors

Figure 15 

 
 

All resistors are ½ Watt types, and are to be mounted on component side. 
If it is more convenient you can also solder the resistors this side. 

Please note, the values of resistors R16 and R17 are dependent on the type of valve applied in 
position B2. 
If valve B2 is of the 12AU7 / ECC82 type as supplied with the kit, R16 has to be 180k Ohm, ½W 
and R17 zero Ohm (a wire jumper). Please see step 19 in “experiments” at the end of this 
manual to find more information about this subject.
