hi everyone,

my 1965 Tremolux is sick, and it's all my fault :(

you see, I put the amp in a 2x10 cabinet, and the cable I took from the amp's output to link to the speakers' ends wasn't soldered....it just had them female-clips that went onto the speaker ends.


sooo.....while playing at a rehearsal, my amp went dead :(

one of the cables linking on the speakers had popped off...I guess maybe the vibrations from the speakers jerked them off!! :jo

I'm looking for a reliable tech in London that can fix this for me without ripping me off (I have little to non-existing know-how of amplifiers)...I've been told on another messageboard that my output transistor must be blown

many thanks

Yannis

Try Charlie Chandler at CCGX. It's in Hampton Wick (Kingston) but his amp guy is good and not pricey. Output transformer methinks - hmmm - hard to find exact replacement - be prepared for not getting the amp back sounding exactly the way it did. Charlie will talk you through it and do the best he can. 0208 973 1441.
