Pathos InPower MkI keeps blowing a fuse (and causing me to, also)


Anyone know what might be causing this?  I haven't been able to find a good repair shop in my area, and I certainly don't want to send it all the way to NY, the only place I have been able to find an authorized Pathos repair shop.  I also don't want to replace it with the money I plan to use for my home theater.  Could it be anything that can easily be fixed by a layman?  Hope someone can help.

Is it the 6A fuse or the 2 A fuse?

1.  look carefully to make sure they haven't been swapped and you have the 2A in the 6 a hole.

2.  I assume you have replaced the tubes or swapped with your other monoblock to see if the problem follows the tubes.

3.  I can't tell from looking but make sure you have slo blo fuses (unless Pathos specifies fast blow, which wouldbe unusual.)

4.  If indeed you have the right fuse and it keeps blowing during service then you have a proboem.  Vendors generally size uses with plenty of margin not to blow.  You could call pathos (yes, it is a pain to get ahold of a real person at any company) and ask them.  They might have decided it was too small and recommended the next size up.  But not likely.

Where are you located?  In LA, I'm pretty sure upscale carries pathos.

Good luck,
