Hi everyone! doing electronics since nearly 40 years now - but believe it or not: i joined the forum today...! Background is an issue w/ the Marantz PM8000 amp, being capable of switching between AB- and Class-A mode. Problem: The main (primary sided) fuse (3.15A/250V) gets destroyed, when connecting preamp w/ power stage. As long as the power stage is open, the fuse is OK - having no sound, of course. FYI: These two functional blocks are connected via two 100R resistors on each channel. Currently i do not have any ideas anymore... So i would be glad for any hint! Thanks Andi (lcdguru)

If yes, did you observe the output of the preamp with an oscilloscpe yet?
