Help for a complete new guy

[creid]

Hello I have just come into possesion a a Garnet D90TR-2X10. It ays piper on the cabenit. I have asked on the vintage forum it it was worth fixing and was told that it was. Well I have little to know experiance with this stlye of electronics but do have the basic knowledge of electronics. Anyway when I got the amp home after aquiring it from this old feller at the recycling depot I pluged it in and got nothing. I checked the fuse and it was good so here I sit not knowing what to do next and not wanting to get electrocuted. ANy help would be awsome. Here are some pics.

Amp test

#1: There are severe voltages in these amps. Be careful.
#2: Disconnect the speakers & measure the dc resistance of the voice coils (go across the speaker terminals)
Do NOT run the amp without a (good) speaker load!
#3: Do the tubes "light up"?
Other than that, with no experience on tube amps, I would recommend taking it to a tech.

Hi....I just acquired a Piper head Model P1001 TR and the chassis looks identical to yours with the exception that mine has 3-12ax7 and only 1-12au7 tubes but the same 6V6 set up,if you find a schematic I would love a copy as my unit sounds a little flat and a little low on volume.... Thanks Tim..... Port Coquitlam BC

Seems to be a nice piece of machinery. If your determent on tinker with it yourself you should start checking for voltages as P Bass said. Don't get zapped, it is not very pleasant! The question is what are you going to do with the measurements you get. Do you have the schematics?
