can you say what a DUMBass?

I had to a few times after what I did doh doh doh doh I was playing lets a/b phono stages and I blew up my Creek OBH8SE I um.. er ..hooked up the Rega power supply to the Creek and the smell of napalm in da morning . So here is the deal I use to repair speakers and I have done many a minor repairs to electronics as well but never say built an amp from scratch my point being that I feel comfortable pokin around inside the Creek .From what it looks like inside the Creek is I blew up a Diode right where the DC is supposed to come into the unit . I can replace this easily and the unit has no other apparent damage .Can anyone tell me exactly what diode the was that burned baby burned? . The Creek power supply is 24V DC 30MA .If you own a Creek or kinda bein a techhead just know I would appreciate it.
