You're sure right about the twist plug, Geoff. I replaced my two
prong with a three prong twist and it was a booger bear to find one to
fit into the hole. I finally stumbled across one (literally!) over in
Ft. Worth at Nortex.
Someone mentioned a dedicated AC line and running it through a 25 amp
variable transformer for their 610, that's the same set up I use.
Has anyone experienced distorted audio when using a BC-614 when "High
Voltage Protect" is on? The "E" model doesn't have this problem, but
when I tried to check out my BC-614-H on the 610-H I got real
distorted audio in low power. All works great in the "Normal" position.
I'm sure it's because of the bias being 'fixed' (variable by the front
panel rheostat) but that's severly reduced B+ when that switch is on.
Not nearly voltage to bias off the 100TH's, to have anything resembling
'smooth' audio.
That, or the bias voltage is also reduced, when the B+ is lowered.
