Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners can't make up my mind

Check for a single-strand short between the speaker terminals on the back of the amp. I don't think it's likely given your description of events (3 hours) but worth checking anyways.

I picked up a Grant TubeDAC for a few reasons, one of which was getting a sense for how "tube sound" fitted into modern systems. My impression in a nutshell was "sounds nice, messes with imaging". Not sure how much of that would translate to a hybrid amp but figured I should mention it.

Fuses don't normally give off that special expensive smell but just in case is it worth looking up Nak model # and checking ?
