I've been studying a few tube pre circuits, collecting parts for a point to point build, reading a lot of threads and what not, and I keep running into some terminology that I kind of get but can't seem to find a really straight forward definition for. For example...
Floating heaters
-I think this has to do with applying DC voltage to the heaters for the purpose of reducing hum. I don't understand what this physically would be in a build.
referenced to ground
-I guess I have a hard time understanding what "reference" means in this context. Does it mean connected?
potential
-like dc potential, another word i often use in conversation but am confused by in this context.
thanks!
