[QUOTE="MadHatter_Lurch, post: 94463, member: 2385"] Welllllllllllllllllll.... I hooked the amp up with no power tubes and turned it on. I left the shell off so I could see the circuitry. As soon as I touched the standby, QC9A a plug on the tube board with a brown wire from the the smaller transformer lit up the night sky. It shot sparks as my fuse blew. I had this problem about 6 months ago when I had hooked the amp up to an incorrect speaker load and ran a bass through it. That time two resistors exploded and I also upgraded some caps on the board. The amp has worked great till now, but I watched the sparks shoot from it. Recently, I have noticed a bit of rust on my transformers. If you have any thoughts please please let me know.
