114. Install R17, a 15K ohm resistor (brown-green-orange). 

 

115. Install R42, a 10K ohm resistor (brown-black-orange). 

 

116. Install C16, a .001uF ceramic capacitor (marked 102 or .001). 

 

117. Install C40, a 10uF electrolytic capacitor. Again check polarity. 

 

118. Install R41, a 10K ohm resistor (brown-black-orange). 

 
Well, we are almost done with the assembly of our kit. Now all we have left to 
do is install some of the larger components to finish it off. We will begin at the 
back of the board... 

 

119. Install J1, the Left IN RCA plug. Make sure to use plenty of solder to 
mount these RCA plugs. This is not so much to do with electrical 
connection, but a physical attachment to the board so they don't break off 
eventually. 

 

120. Install J4, the Right In RCA plug. 

 

121. Install J5, a power jack. 

 

122. Install J3, the Right Out RCA plug. 

 

123. Install J2, the Left Out RCA plug. 

 

124. Install S1, the power switch. Be sure and solder all six pins. 

 

125. Install R6, a 100K dual ganged potentiometer. You will see the 100K 
marked right on the top side of the component. Make sure to seat all three 
of these pots flush and square to the board so that the shafts will line up 
properly with the holes in the case. 

 

126. Install R10, another 100K dual ganged potentiometer. 

 

127. Install R13, a 500K dual ganged potentiometer.
