Greetings all
I recently purchased a McCormack DNA-1 Deluxe and it had blown fuse on one of the B+/Bi Power Supply Rails. I opened up the amp and saw the following fuses in the amp.
BUSS AGC10 250V UL SA
These are 10amp fuses correct?
I took a look @ the manual of the DNA-1 and it stated that for the B+/B- Power Supply Rail Fuses 8 Amp Fast Blo fuses should be used.
Is it ok to use 10 amp fuses if the manual calls for 8 amp fuses? What harm if any would I be doing to the amp should 10amp fuses are used?
Lastly I was only able to get 7 1/2 amp 250V Fast Blo fuses locally. I went everywhere I could. Is it ok if I use a lesser amperage fuse? Would I be cauing harm to the amp as well by use a lesser amperage fuse? Would SQ of the DNA-1 Deluxe be affected by different fuses with either lesser or more amperage than specified? So far I've been listening to the DNA-1 Dlx with only the 7.5 amp fuses installed and it sounds great. I'm just trying to make sure I don't mess up the amp or something worse.
Thanks so much and sorry for the novice questions.
