In Reply to: Help, my AtmaSphere M60 blew a fuse!! posted by OTLnewbie on December 23, 2011 at 17:33:55:
We have Jack down below who has identified the fuse as one that protects one of the two output stage power supplies. It makes perfect sense that this would be a 5A fuse. On the other hand, I cannot think of anything routine that would take out this fuse. If indeed it is an 0.5A fuse, then it would be protecting the input circuit, which has its own higher voltage/lower current supply (compared to the output supplies). We also have you saying that you are getting no music. Did the fuse blow while you were listening? What happened at the moment the fuse blew? Is the amp dead silent now, with that blown fuse?
