You may, in all probability, have a shorted rectifier tube. I would test or swap the rectifier before anything else. If it's not the rectifier or the wrong fuse type, then you may have to have it serviced (shorted power supply cap or output transformer).
Tube amp help-
hello all,
wondering if any of you have an idea what is going on with my amp...
the amp is a JC Verdier Audiobloc II.
it is popping fuses after I shut down the amp.
I can place in a new fuse, listen for the evening, then the next time I turn on the amp the fuse will be blown and I will have to install a new one to get the amp going again.
I have checked the following:
1. the bias is correct
2. the tubes are good, ive tried different sets of output tubes, and driver tubes and all have been tested via tube tester
thanks
