Thank you for your response. There is only one fuse in this amp- at the mains IEC inlet. I started again and used a pure OCC copper pole from a spare Furutech IEC inlet to solder the four wires and then use it as a bridge between the negative poles....to no good result. Clearly, problem is somewhere else-could be just a disrupted connection but as I lack knowledge for this kind of diagnosis I will have to take it to a professional..... I certainly hope that those Eichmann Pods and Furutech wire will definitely improve the amp as have all other prior mods.
No bias reading, tubes lit up, no sound
Just replaced the generic brass binding posts and the four connecting wires to/from the output trannies on my Cayin TA-30 tube integrated with Eichmann Pods and Furutech Alpha OCC wire but amp is not playing music now, another set of tubes didn't help. I had to slightly enlarge the holes for the new posts. I also got rid of the soldered thin plate connecting/shorting the two negative posts, on which were soldered a total of four black wires-two from the output transformers, one from a ground screw, and one coming from a power supply cap. I soldered them in twos to each terminal and then soldered a short piece of the Furutech wire between the two posts.
Did the vibrations from the drill caused any damage, or is the new four black wire connection the culprit? I am no technician so I thought to ask for help if anyone could point to a possible remedy that would save me a trip to a qualified service, in which case my system will be down for what would feel like forever.....Thank you so much for your input!!
