    Ampeg SVT-6 Please Help

    I tried all 10 mosfets on channel one and I tried just one 9240 and one 240 on channel one to not risk further damage. Same result...... DC voltage on channel 1. They were not matched, but they were new from the same tube. If I can at least get it working, I will then work on matching.

    SVT3Pro Bias Setting

    Hey guys, I just set mine, and the big resistors in the front of the power amp board, left of the bias pot (R21 and R63) are hot as hell. I measured them with my temp gun and they are 170 degrees F. Everything else is running ok. Heatsink temp is around 95F. Is this normal or do I have another...
