Hi,
I'll save you the typing and say right off that I know this amp is a piece of trash. I've had problems with it 1-2x a year for the past three years. I completely re-capped it and put silicone washers on the board mounts, etc... It has been working fine for quite a while, until last week.
Anyway, I need help and my problem is this:
Two of the power tubes aren't heating up. I switched tubes around so it's not the tubes. I checked continuity on the fuses and they all check out good. I traced all connections around every pin to their sources and made sure the resistor values were all good. As far as I can tell it should be working fine... but it isn't. I'm no troubleshooting expert. Can anyone tell me where to start diagnosing?
