Bass Amp Problem
I have a Bass amp that is just out of warranty. The electronics comes on,
but no sound. The cone moves in when the power is turned on and stays in until it is turned off. Obviously some DC is getting to it. Question: Is the transformer the likely suspect? TIA! Eric B. |

If it is valve, then the output transformer must be snafu for the cone to come out. But chances are that it is a solid state amp, and the output transistors are rooted. If it has been in 'cone in' condition for more than a moment, there is a good chance the speaker is cooked too. geoff |
