Rogue Audio. Reliability issues? Anyone?

stereo5,

Yes, the fuse popped when the tube went.

I have happily owned various Rogue Audio products for over 10 years. I have always been pleased with the availability to speak with Nick and even Mark himself. And no issues with product reliability. Surprised to hear the issues you've expressed. Hopefully you can resolve your problems but realize as stated above that tube equipment is an investment in time and money. A labor of love is required but you need to determine if it's worth it to you. But don't be afraid to call back to Rogue. They've always been helpful as far as my experience has gone.

Gee, I just spent $200.00 one way to send my behemoth solid state amp across the country for repair. It may cost $1000.00 by the time I'm done. Can I replace a $10K MSRP amp for that? Nope! I suggest looking at accessories here or on that other audio mart and find a pair of matched tubes to fit our needs. Then you have a spare when the next one fails.

I had a rogue integrated and one of the boards inside was bad from the get-go. On the positive side, they got back to me promptly over the phone and sent me a board so I could replace it myself. Worked good after that.

box it up and send it to me for repair and upgrades.

Happy Listening.
