[QUOTE="Spooney, post: 6583355, member: 584130"] i'd like to add a little something to what amprepairman said. Blown fets in the power supply more often than not go hand in hand with blown fets in the output section of your amp. a good indicator of where the problem lies is when your fuse blows on the amplifier. if you have an amp that is blowing fuses when remote turn on power is applied then it is a good chance at least one of your output fets are toasted. if your amp is blowing fuses the second you replace a fuse or hook up your power wire(no remote turn on signal applied) then you are probably looking at some power supply issues. I just wanted to add this because I wouldn't want somebody to think just because they replaced some blown ps fets that their amp is as good as new. It is fairly common for a fet to die without any visual signs of destruction. You will need to get in there with your multimeter and check for shorts between the legs of the fets. [/QUOTE]
