Hi all , ive got an issue with my right Croft 7r monoblock .
Ive just got out the shower to realise that no sound was coming through the right speaker but it was fine earlier .
After playing around with the cables ,with no results , i opened up the mono to find that the input valve(12bh7) was not glowing but the others were. (Pictured)
I thought one of my newest valves may have blown so i switched back in my old spares but still there is no glowing from them either and still no sound in right chanel .
Im wondering wether something has blown? Seems odd as they were only serviced and upgraded about 9-10 months ago.
I have noticed occasionally and intermittently (maybe 5-6 times) since i bought them a few months back, that this mono doesnt always fire up properly . It has soft start to allow the valves to warm up ,then the power light on the front panel turns from red to green after a few minutes to signal its ready. Sometimes the light would stay red and not click to green after long periods and i would have to switch it off and back on before it would play ball.
Im wondering if its an issue thats reared its head or im just unlucky and something has blown?? I cant see anything with any damage inside though and they have not been moved once since i set them up apart from opening the top up to carefully remove the input valves for newer ones.
Any help or knowledge would be great. Hopefully i dont have to send them back to Glenn in the UK
Cheers
Karl
