Need help/advice from Bryston owners

A couple of days back my 2 year old 14 BST went up in smoke with an impressive firework display. I bought the amp from the authorised Bryston dealer in New Delhi, India, where I live. The dealer informs me that the malfunction was probably caused by a shorting of the speaker terminals and hence is not covered by the warranty.I am not sure what caused the malfunction;but what are the fuse and the circuit breaker switches meant for?
I have a $300 Marantz receiver which goes into standby if the speaker terminals are shorted. Would imagine that a 6k amp would have similar technology.
Would appreciate any advice/ suggestions.
Many thanks.

Hi,

You're getting great advice. Contact Bryston directly.

I sent in my BP-20 preamp earlier in the year for what turned out to be a problem with an upstream component. Bryston tuned up the 11 year old preamp with a couple of new connectors on the back and replaced a slightly sticky power switch. The thing is like brand new.

I have a feeling they'll get you fixed up.

Regards,
Erik
