Who needs a clean sound????  :lol:

Rolling back the volume "old skool" is good enough for me...

If I had that amp and all your gear, I'd just get a White Baby Grand Piano to play in the tender moments.. (and to stand on for the big solo of course)  :lol:

Looks like a great amp.

Very nice Dave, so the speakers were Golds and G12H's.... in an X pattern?

Yep, they're the ones Don  :)

Quick update on the amp, as it looks like I have the first "broken" AFD100  :(

Volume started swelling up and down, and now V1 has the bias error light on.  Tried several different valves in V1 and every one shows an error.  Must be something specific to the V1 power supply.  Damn.

It's going back to Sounds Great on Tuesday.  Arse.

How very annoying - hope it's not a serious problem and that you get it back soon.
I think I hate being indecisive.

Maybe there's a bug in the firmware  :lol:

Sorry Dave, surely it's gonna be fixed soon. Have you checked all fuses?

All good luck with it!

don't worry. I found sounds great to be top notch when fixing things under warranty. oh wait!

nah they probably value you your custom enough to not treat you like a chump and send you a repair job done by a one armed, blind, chimp.

You poor soul, you'll just have to go make do with a Bogner!  :lol:

Seriously though, it sucks but Marshall after sales is second to none from what I've heard so I'm sure you'll have it back in full working order real soon.

Yep, it's a bugger but it's all warrantied for 12 months, and 3 years if I send back the warranty card (which of course I'll definitely be doing!)

I hope it's not the first of many and just an isolated incident...

if possible will you let us know what happened? I for one would perhaps be interested.

I'll update this thread, yes.  I doubt I'll have the same experience you had.

Oh I didn't ever think you would.
I just wondered about what fault happened with the amp. I'd be interested to know that.

That's a bummer Dave :(

Hope it's sorted soon and has no more issues.
