Hi, I'm building a U47 clone, and I have a question about basic interpretation of the schematic - how to translate into real-world.
Attached is the U47 schematic. Circled (or ovaled) in red is the ground connections.
Would one interpret this literally - ie, take the lead off C1, attach it to the lead off R2, then to the lead off the can shield, then the lead off R8, etc, on down to the ground at the binder/tuchel connector...or would one literally have some kind of bus bar to which all the connections are made up/down the mic?
Or, would one actually take a wire from each to a star ground point at the bottom of the mic, meaning literally have 7 wires coming down to a star ground internally at the mic. Lead off C1 to star ground, lead off R2 to star ground, lead off can shield to star ground...
- forgive me I've not had the luxury of a real '47 to open, although I've tried to figure this out from many pix.
I know this newbie eye-rollingly simple for you guys, so sorry for that. But I just don't know how to interpret this correctly.
Thank-you,
Mike
