Now just before practice I went into my basement to warm up a bit and after a few minutes low end went out, inner 2 6l6's glowing bright red then the rectifier tubes started flashing then pop!
And then the dreaded smell of something burning.
I opened her up and flipped her over to check out if I had blown anything on the inside. Looked good. Put another fuse in and tried to check and see if any tubes were still good.
My question is can you run the amp in silicon diode mode without rectifier tubes in place safely?
It's been a few years since I've had to look into a situation like this and can't seem to find the info.
Thanks.
