only 6 months old , barged into a door apparently but owner cagey. No
mention of what happened when powered up. 10 watt resistor overheated to
burn up cabling and black "candy floss" everwhere inside.
Will be a while before I can get any power onto it, schema on
elektrotanya.
But anyone know the DC ohmages of the transformers ? These readings look
ok
, genericaly speaking
o/p primary 29.8/24.6 R

mains primary for 240V 4.4R
sec
heater 0.4R
HT 14.2R
other DC 74.4R





Saw one of these a while ago and had to hard wire the ribbon cable between
pre-amp/power amp boards as it had arced/burnt the connectors.

One thing I particularly remember is the OPT input feed is connected via a
plug and socket to the output PCB and, unlike most Peavey units, it is
possible to connect this the wrong way round. This will result in all sorts
of weird feedback/oscillations, particularly when playing with the
"resonance" pot on the back panel.

This amp cost me a lot of time and frustration.
