Okay. It seems there's the possibility to send an email or phone # to the person this way for more personal communication.08-31-12: Mt10425Did you try to send your email address and or phone number through the new system to another Agon member?. 
Fuse burned out in shipping? ?
I'm a little puzzled by your description of a shorted component and clearing itself. It isn't that I disagree or anything, I merely don't think I understand. Would you mind elaborating?08-30-12: AewhistoryAewhistory,By clearing itself I mean the s... 
Fuse burned out in shipping? ?
Finally, I think what bothers me the most is that the channel never made a peep. It wasn't like there was this very brief sounds and the fuse blew cutting the sound out, I mean it was like my speaker was hooked up to nothing.It appears you hooked ... 
Fuse burned out in shipping? ?
The above answers are intelligent discussions of what may may have blown the fuse, but none even hint at an unplugged amp blowing a fuse on its own. 08-30-12: MechansMechans, He suggested that perhaps something happened in shipping to cause the fu... 
Fuse burned out in shipping? ?
Aewhistory,The only way to tell if the amp had a blown fuse when you received the amp from the shipper was if you checked all the fuses in the amp before connecting it to the AC power.The more practical, likely, explanation is the fuse blew when t... 
Selling dispute. Please comment.
Jaxwired, Email the buyer letting him know you have mailed him the copies of the manuals.I would also add in the email, the emails between you and the manufacture.... I bet the buyer will understand and be happy.

....... "the buyer needs to ship them back at his expense (PayPay rules)"..........08-27-12: Buconero117 Plus the buyer better insure the two amps."No, Seller. You had to have known there was no manual, but yet you sold it as mint with a manual. E... 
Amp Shutting Down, need help
Hi frank,...... If the two devices fail to resolve, either keep or sell them, and take my joking recommendation to neatly coil-stack an appropriately rated ext cord and hide it out of sight behind other equipment, rack/furniture, etc., or package ...

Amp Shutting Down, need help
Orrrrrr, I'm betting because the mag-breaker tripped before the meter read the actual larger voltage drop.08-23-12: Metro04Hi Frank,The magnetic breaker doesn't trip when the 50' 16/3 cord is used.Which now gets to Ralph’s speculation regarding th... 
Amp Shutting Down, need help
I like to go for the simplest answer as the best one so my thinking right now is the breaker itself is defective.08-23-12: AtmasphereRalph,I agree....I would think both toroidal transformers would have to be the first items powered up on the amp a... 
Amp Shutting Down, need help
Sailcappy,So during the tests on the 15 amp circuits not one of 15 amp breakers tripped. But the 15 amp magnetic breaker on the Cary amp did......And of all the 5 circuits the amp was tested on the odds are great that at least 2 were on the other ... 
Amp Shutting Down, need help
Its easy enough to test for. There is someone on this forum who makes AC extension outlets that have the DC Blocker built in. Just use one of those and you would know if that's what it is.08-22-12: AtmasphereAtmasphere,Agree....The Agon's members ...
