rogue dronus magnum issues


I have purchased a rogue audio magnm that has played beautifully up till now, it's now dead. wont' even power up! I am going to contact Rogue. but I bought it second hand so I have no warranty. There is a potted squard section in the middle of the amp where 4 wires come in and are terminated. One of the 4 wires is burned insulation with exposed wires. I suspect this is the problem. How it happened I have no idea, I am running Martin Logan Aeris i's which are a difficult load but I would have assumed this would knock out the output tubes if abything? Help!!

Also, not that this will help your current situation, but did you know that you can change the output terminals to match a 4-ohm load? The Cronus has only one set of speaker terminals, but there is an in-chassis swap (solderless, I'm pretty sure) to tap the speaker terminals for 4-ohm use. This may be a help for driving a "difficult load," which often means the speaker's impedance drops below 4 ohms.
