I'm in contact with them:
I sent the original back to Sweetwater and then sent me an older HX version it worked great for about 8hrs, blew sent it back to PRS. Damaged power tube in transit blew fuses and some resistors. New tubes, fuses and resistors, sent back to me. Worked awesome for a 4hr gig, jammed at home for another 4hrs and took it to the next gig a couple days later and blew upon turning on. I've used with an Ox Box for the attenuation.
I really want this amp to work! It sounds amazing when it does. Full humbuckers with my DGT it gets close to Duane tones. I've babied this amp so much since getting it back from PRS, I'm perplexed as to what is making it pop. I'm hoping this isn't a stay at home amp that needs extra coddle. My 67 Super Reverb has endured so much more than this amp :/
If we can't figure out what is going on I might try to trade it with some money back for the 50 watt version and see how it handles.
I‘m curious if you have an update. Did you get the 50 Watter?
