Hello fellow Swan fans,
I have searched the entire archive for threads relating to the 1200Z
amplifier and only found info about the 1200X. Since nothing was found,
I am posting the following:
Swan model number: 1200Z
Swan serial number: 156
Tubes: 6MJ6 (x4)
Question about the bias circuit:
The schematic shows R19 (5K pot), R22 (3.3K, 2W) and R23 (1K, 2W) as the
bias circuit. This is what is presently in my amplifier, which agrees
with the schematic. My manual, which I believe is original, shows the
same parts in the parts list, but the bottom view of the chassis shows
R19, R20, CR11 and Q1. However, the parts list also includes CR11
(1N4005) and Q1 (MJE521), but does not include R20. R20, CR11 and Q1 do
not show up anywhere on the schematic.
Does anyone know what the "correct" bias circuit is?
Thank you very much for your help and 73.
Dan, K2VY
