I really need some input regarding this safety monitoring function in the Grandmeister Deluxe 40 amplifier.
My first head that I got, only worked for an hour, and the TSC lights all came on. Needless to say, I thought that I got a lemon and sent the head back to the store. I then got the new one. I truly love the tone and functionality of this amp, but reliability has been a big concern for me. Since I have gotten the new head, I have had many little issues. The amp will crackle out at least once every gig, and then when I reboot the amp it has made it through the remainder of the show. I have played about ten gigs with this head, and now the TSC indicator is showing a problem with the two center Tubes. The two middle lights will stay illuminated regardless of the power soak setting. I have swapped the tubes, and the lights do not change. I am wondering if maybe the anode fuse for those two tubes has possibly blown or if this could mean something else. The tone seems a bit fuzzy ever since this started, but otherwise it seems to be still working right.
The wattage seems to be doing what is supposed to when I switch from 20 to 40. Hopefully someone could shine some light on this for me.
