I've tested the AD30TC combo at a music store here in Helsinki, Finland, and both times it's burned the fuse inside where you plug in the power cord. I really really want the AD30TC but now I'm wondering if this is a one-time fluke or is it a bigger problem? Has anyone had any problems like this? I couldn't believe it when I went back a week later to test it and it burned a fuse AGAIN. I'd never even seen an amp blow a fuse before...(the power just cuts off.)
Also, is there any reason to buy the AD30TC as a separate head-and-2x12 cabinet instead of just buying the combo? The combo would be easier to carry around but the head and 2x12 looks really good. They're also more expensive.
thanks,m.

Hey, I bought a AD30TCh w/ 2x12. It worked great in the store, but when I finally got it home it kept blowing fuses. So I called Orange and they said it was no big deal, just that the power tubes have gotten knocked around during shipping and they would send me some new ones right away. A few days later they came, stuck them in, never has blown another fuse.

Thanks for the reply -
this is off topic but I was wondering what made you decide to get the head and 2 x 12 instead of the combo? More bass? Better looking? That's what I'm trying to decide right now. Also the AD30TCh seemed louder in the store than the combo, with the settings all the same.

I wanted the AD30 combo but they sold it before I made my final decision, by the time I was ready to buy all they had was the head w/2x12 or a 15 watt combo.
