Need Golden Tube amp repaired

I am the proud owner of a pair of Golden Tube SE-100 power amps, but recently one of the amps has taken to constantly blowing the main power fuse after only being turned on for about ten seconds. I know that Golden Tube is no longer in business, but is there anybody out there who might be able to repair this terrific sounding, but currently troubled amplifier?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Mike

The manufactures list on this web site shows a name and phone number for Golden Tube, you might try it.

First things first. Have you tried changing tubes ? If possible, use some older but still verified good tubes. If there is actual damage to the amp circuitry itself, it doesn't roast a brand new or more expensive set of "glowers".

If it isn't a bad tube, i would venture to say that a capacitor went south.... Sean

Mike,if u need your amp repaired you can try Cary audio in North Carolina,I believe they will fix any tube amp for either 89.00 or 99.00 plus parts.
