Help with my dead DRRI..
Hi all...
I've got a dead DRRI on my hands. Literally. Went to turn it on this morning, and nothing. No power. Checked the connections just to make sure, still nothing.

I haven't had any problem with the amp at all, i've had it for over a year now. I played it last night and as usual played great. Is there anything i can check on this thing to get it going before i call up my tech?

Thanks.

Ummm ...

The amp works, but what caused the fuse to blow?

The most common causes are failing electrolytics or weak power tubes.

It's working fine, but the blown fuse may be a sign that it needs a little work.

Keep an eye on it. Since it's new amp, the power tubes or rectifier are the first place to look if it blows another fuse.
