I had finished all the wiring in January (I think) and have been completely lazy and scared to do the testing and start up procedures. The steps to start up were a bit confusing to me as a first time amp builder as the manual probably assumed prior build experience. I finally mustered up the courage a couple of weeks ago and read all of the trouble shooting threads on the Triwatt forum and did some google researching and got to it.
Everything was testing out voltage wise and then I spotted a lead that needed to be soldered in. Got that done and biased the tubes and all the voltages were in range. Plugged in and worked perfected. No debugging at all, can't fucking believe it! Now I want to build another amp! Will post more pics once I have it in a head shell but since I'm making it could be another year but hopefully not....

I'm at the stage in my TC15 build where I am supposed to test voltages for the transformers but like you I find the documentation a bit confusing...there is a section where I am supposed to test the trannies without anything else attached (IE turret board, pots, etc) from my understanding, but the procedure which describes testing voltage is later on in the documentation when the build is complete...? (Kinda freaked about doing that if there is no load on the trannies?)
