I went through a few weeks of fuses blowing but it’s settled now. Also, there is one particular kettle lead im using that improves it a lot for some reason.
Otherwise when I turn the amp on it hisses and buzzes for a spell and the knobs crackle when you turn them but after about 20 mins it stops and works fine.
Another issue I had recently was that it started sounded awful and thin (a bit ’flangey’) when I was using the fx loop (which has its own effects volume pot) but I’ve stopped using it now and just go front end with everything.
Does this sound like an obvious problem?
It could also be a power valve but less likely from the type of noise.
Sounds like a bad contact in the IEC socket or that the other cables have loose pin contacts. The cable by itself cannot make any difference.
A parallel effects loop - which the Laney is - will do that if there's digital latency in whatever is in the loop, or a phase reversal which can happen with analogue pedals as well.
You can modify the loop to series, which is better.
