This is my first post. Thanks for having me.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My brother who plays in an indie punk band received a Dual Rectifier head from a friend who wasn't using it because its broken.
Basicially it won't turn on. His friend had said that he thinks it was broken due to the previous owner hooking it up to a cabinet with the wrong ohmage.
I realize that a number of things could be causing it to not turn on, but I wanted to ask for any advice on what the possible problems could be?
I am no tube amp expert but could it be something as simple as a blown fuse? Someone had also suggested the transformer could be blown. If its the transformer, does anyone know how much that repair would cost?
If its a fuse could anyone suggest how we could check it on the Dual Rec?
Thanks
