Hey folks, first time on this forum!
My Suhr Custom Audio PT 50 has started giving me problems:
- A loud pop in the speakers whenever I try to turn on, or turn off my amp
- A sudden droop in volume after about 1 min.
I initially thought it might be the power tubes, and put in new ones (JJ EL34s). Same issues. It's something else.
I had bought this amp used very recently, and it had been working great for about a month.
I had always used the amp in a 4CM configuration.
Just this one time, I decided to plug in my guitar directly to the amp, but unfortunately I had left the "in active" switch in the back engaged (i.e. I ended up enabling the effects loop without having anything connected). Right after that, things went bad.
I'm starting to freak out - this is not looking good. Anyone else experienced such issues? Did I blow my transformers?
Thanks much!
