Amp will not power off
Hey folks,
I have owned a Forte 1A class A 50 wpc SS amp for several years that has been working great until a few days ago.
I have used a Bryston BP26 preamp with it for a while until about a month ago when I bought a hybrid tube preamp (Black Ice Audio F360).
The F360 has been used quite frequently during this month.
A few days ago, a friend brought over a Melos tube preamp. We hooked things up and listened for a few hours.
After listening for the evening, I flipped the power switch on the Forte 1A to the off position but the LED stayed on and the amp did not power down.
Waited a while. Then tried toggling the switch a few times but eventually had to just pull the plug from the power supply.
Anyone experience this? Hope it's nothing serious.
Thanks!
@imhififan - Thanks just ordered one. Using the power strip for now until the switch arrives. @oldhvymec - Appreciate the photo! Do you own one of these? @lucky_doggg7 Couldn't resist the urge to click the Mark Levinson link. Now reading reviews. It certainly would do a nice job in fixing my problem...

Not me buddy, but I sure wouldn't mind one or two. :-) You can sure see the Pass design. I have a few Pass designs here. Threshold, Adcom, Pass, First Watt. I've known a few Forte fans, I've seen them really hot rodded too. The can really put out the watts. Fry eggs on them too..:-) Threshold heat wise, are close. Regards |
