Need help about El84 Powered “Vibrolux “ copy errors.
Hi there amp experts , masters. Im working on my Vibrolux copy powered by El84’s. It is an amp 80’s local made. No scheme unfortunately, so i tried to drew as it is .I dont know how to draw by a software eighter. Sorry about my painting skills Hope it work for me to get your precious tips.
My questions :
1) Filter caps swapped with newer versions by bad workmanship. Incorrect values too. I ripped them off. At least , old can caps stayed on the amp so i can see the original values . One 50+50 uf can cap and two pair of 20+20.
2) The right lug of the intensity pot was on Filter cap i found. Is that right place to be ? Or ground? I drew as it is going to ground here.
3) Is there any right place to be for that Blue cable which is going to speaker socket lug ?
4) Is there any similar amp design to follow?
5) Please tell me if you see any error there.
Thank you everybody for your precious time.

Are there issues?
Better start comparing your build to a vibrolux schematic and write down the differences in component values and try to analyze why they're different

I will try to draw it by a software so i can share with the people here. Filter caps are butchered on the amp . There is original Caps stayed on the amp.So I know the values but i need to find a design that would match with this Amp .
