Problem with my Atma-Sphere M60

NO NO NO. Lapierre is INCORRECT.

My apologies for shouting Lapierre but I didn't want someone to make a mistake on incorrect advice. Look at each of the manuals for the M-60s at the link I provided. For each model, the fuse is always SLOW.

Not sure where Lapierre got this idea, But it is completely INCORRECT.

I've also asked Atma-Sphere folks about the boutique fuses from HiFi Tuning. They don't think pricey fuses make an improvement in the sound in their designs.

Lapierre's post is a great example of why posting questions like the OPs is a bad idea on Audiogon or an audio forum when it is possible to call/e-mail the manufacturer or find the documentation with the info you need on a manufacturer's website.

OK, rant over. Happy holidays everyone. Hope you can all enjoy some sonic bliss in the New Year.

I posted a longer rant about the inadvisability of asking questions like this. But it hasn't posted for some reason. Short version:

Lapierre is incorrect. For all models of M-60 the fuses are slow blow fuses, as the manuals I linked to make perfectly clear.

For questions like this, call/e-mail the manufacturer/retailer or go the manufacturer's webpage. Not a good thing to ask in a forum due to potentially disastrous incorrect information that might be given.

Roscoeii, don't worry. I know they're slow blow fuses. I figured out I need 3 amp fuse, not the 0.5 amp. I just looked at the fuses in the other working mono block to confirm which fuse I need. There are no 5 amp fuses on the M60.

I just looked at the fuses in the other working mono block to confirm which fuse I need.

There you go, one problem solved. The bigger problem I see is,why did the fuse blow on a six month old amp.

My bag Dracule. I figured you would just look at the other fuses to determine what you needed.

HiFi Tuning manufactures fuses SLOW and FAST. At first glance I only saw FAST 5A fuse which is what I posted.

Hopefully you get better fuses.
