    Let me know if it's anything more than the fuse and we'll take a look FOC.

    Checked out Gagaryn's amp this evening.

    RiftAmps called it right - blown PT primary winding. Luckily, it's failed in the section between the 230 and 240V taps so we got the amp working again by reconnecting it to 230V. This is not ideal though - mains voltage at Gagaryn's flat measured 239V...

    This amp is an earlier version with none of the additional fusing shown on the current schematic either.

    A lot of clever people on this forum. :-) 

    @ICBM Thanks again for your help this evening, 

    @MattFGBI, thanks for your offer of help (might still be needed! :-) Dropped you a PM),

    and thanks for everyone's help with the diagnosis. :-)
