Sometimes after 1.5 hours originally , now sometimes soon after switch on , sometimes a bit later. Amp plate says 5A(T) for 240V use. Inside the IEC, is one non-blown 2A(T) in the active position, ah! the simplest of repair jobs, BUT No reported noises like magnetisation buzz or speaker noises , no smoke or smells. Owner uses the same cab and speaker wire with another amp ok. No blown fuses retained by the owner but reported to be blackened. 2A fuses passing 3A or so and then failing when asked to pass 4A say, but they will have fuse-wire breaks , not vaporisation and blackening. Tx torroid 0.8R or so per primary , measured cold, seems reasonable for
135mm diameter, 65mm high Tx. Not in a position to check the main caps yet , but no bulges. Any Eden usual suspects? PbF and RoHS stickers a-plenty- posted
