Those with experience with Rowland Model 6's?

I have the 6's with their battery power. My whole system is Rowland.
The Coherence II, the Cadence, and the Model 6's.
Incredible with my Quads, both the 63's and the 989's.

Need help if anyone can answer....
One of the amps is warming up unevenly. The right side warms up the left is much cooler. The other amp is coming to temperature and maintanining it correctly on both sides.

Have replaced the fuses that are supposedly to maintain temperatures, on the left side of the troubled amp. But still no difference.

The amp works as well as the one that maintains its temperature on both sides.

Any ideas what might be amiss? Am I forcing the amp even if there is not audible difference?

Thanks for any help.

Jemo I was told they are class A and not a sliding biased amp;I never checked with rolands tech support group though.
I always have my eye out for the BPS option as I have been told from others as well that it is a very worthwhile investment.

Hey guys, Jeff Rowland has a friend, Ron that deals in his older equipment. I purchased my 6's and BPS from Ron and was referred to him by Jeff himself. Shoot him an email and let him know you are looking for batteries and he may stumble across a source from them. He is a very good guy and knows Jeff's equipment really well. Here is the email to reach him, I believe:audioelan@msn.com.
Good luck; the batteries are awesome; lower noise floor, smooth sound, very musical.
