Default Re: Homebrew Record Player. BSR UA6 deck and RS Components. Stereo Amplifier.

9.80V-5.42V=4.38V which is one helluva volt drop.

Do the wires lead directly from the smoothing cap to the amplifier?

It might help if you drew out the circuit of the PSU section ie mains transformer, bridge rectifier, choke and smoothing capacitor.
