I always check the rectifier, then check tubes with known good ones. May go thru a few fuses before you figure out the problem. you may want to pull the chassis and check solder points for problems. Wires etc. I take pics of all my amps internals when it is working right, in case I mess something up or cant quite remember what is the correct config. All I have to do is pull up the pic and instant schematic that even I can follow.\ All else fails, send it to the mother ship ....the Z guys have it covered. hope its an easy fix.

Hey fishman, thanks for the tip. The guilty party was the rectifier.

What kind of rectifier was in there? What'd you put in?

if you can, try a NOS rectifier, mullard, phillips, raytheon, etc. I have a NOS mullard in mine, paid 85.00 but money very well spent. a difference you can hear.
