RE: Are you serious? 8 output tubes per monoblock?

What ever the number. They must love you at tube replacement time. Anyway, i worked on several sino amps where the transformer leads were improperly routed and one wire was caught between the trans body and the chassis. In one unit i manage to save it as the insulation did not break down and the other unit it shorted and took out the tranny. Just thought i would put that out there in case your hunt for a cold solder joint, which gets my vote, does not pan out.
