In Reply to: Re: A cap in series with the signal and driving some impedance or resistance... posted by Nickel Core on July 3, 2005 at 09:58:13:
Dear Jeffrey,Thank you, this is very helpful but...
I checked my amp, and the first coupling cap (0.22uf) is driving a 2200 ohm load and the second cap (0.47uf) is driving a 3300 ohm load.
Actually the first coupling cap drives two resistors of 2200 ohm in parallel since the second stage uses a double triode (5687) with both sections paralleled.
According to your formula this translates to 328hz of the 0.22uf cap driving a 2200ohm resistor and 102hz for the 0.47uf driving the 3300ohm resistor.Quite a bit of 1.5hz.
Either I have the resistor values wrong, (my ohmmeter failed so I can't check), my math fails or something else is going on.
Why between 0.7 and 1.5Hz btw?
