Hurricane DT

I purchased some Hurricane DTs a few years ago and they've been working great, until last night. I was adjusting one of the bias pots and the tube blew (in VB1).. now the amp is reading -001 on each of the bias pots and no volume through the speaker. I thought it might be the fuse so i swapped fuses and still have the same issue. I attempted to take out all 8 of the KT-88s and bring them up one at a time but the meter still reads -001. Any ideas?

I had an original pair of Hurricanes myself (loved them. Is yours the newer version?

This has happened to me a number of times in the past and since I an not a tech type of person I had to have the amp serviced. I hope someone here can advise you of an easy fix. If this is one of the older versions I heard that this problem was addressed in the newer versions.

Good luck!
