200s
« on: April 06, 2005, 02:48:48 pm »
my 200s has powered with 220v instead of 110v (I cannot sleep for that). Now it blows the fuse immediately every time I try to start it.
Does anyone please can help me?
What could be the problem?
How can I fix it?

Immediately blowing the fuse is usually due to a fault in the power supply of the amp.  I would first suspect the rectifier tube (I think it's a GZ34, but check the schematic available on this site first)... and the second most likely would be a shorted electrolytic filter capacitor.  

If replacing the rectifier tube still blows fuses, then I would replace all of the power supply electrolytics.

Hope this helps,
Joe
