Tube Amp Repair

Hi

I have a Primaluna evo300 integrated tube amp

recently one of my KT66 tubes went bad, i temporarily put a EL34 in which came with amp while waiting for new tube.

Putting the new KT66 in for some reason did not seat well and guide pin broke off.  I put the EL34 back in and some smoke came out the socket.   I then put the KT66 back in.

All 4 power tubes glow but no sound.   I do not want to ship unit back to west coast

ANYONE know a firm in NJ/NYC area that can take a look at what is going on?

 

Thanks MUCH

So sorry to see this happen.

I did a similar Performance dropping in a Kt88 without ceter pin, 1 pin off and smoke. Called Rogue audio tech dept, told me to look for obvious burnt parts.Found 3 resistors blown up, Replaced them myself and worked fine.

Sent it back to factory just for well being, Guess i fixed it fine as they found nothing wrong.

Id send it in to factory service..
