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

One of the many questions: Does the Powerstage work with another signal 
e.g. a signal generator when the premap is disconnected?
If yes, did you observe the output of the preamp with an oscilloscpe 
yet?
