I was just playing my or80 (cranked very high mind you) and then all of a sudden the sound quickly faded as if I blew something...
the tubes still light up, but no sound... Is it a fuse? How do you tell? Secondly, what is the voltage setting for Canada/US???
thank you!!!!
Help! My OR80 stopped working!

Sounds like you blew a fuse. There will be two fuses on the back of the amp, most likely one of those will be gone. The amp will still light up but no sound. The most likely cause is a voltage issue if yer not in the UK OR a bad power valve. Do you have spare tubes? change them and see if the fuse blows again.
Course it could be another component, in my experience though it's been fuses due to bad valves. If it ain't the valve, take it to a tec and have them service it.

The way i have read it ( i might be wrong), you dont need to "re-bias" if your replacing with the same "type" of valve, you only need to if you are changing,( which you cant do with oranges, but you can do with matamps, with bias adjustment points)
