    OK, I've bought 8 of them (cost pennies) so if they do start popping regularly, I could always try changing them for slow-blow variants...

    FWIW, the blown fuse has an "F" prefix, and the ones I've just bought from Ryness have a "T" prefix. Is this important?

    The 'T' should signify slow blow, so will be OK,

    good luck

    Try the rectifers, probably not rated highly enough for the volts, and have gone either short or open and fried the fuse.

    Well, I installed the 3.15A fuses last night, and the amp worked perfectly for several hours. Guess the problem is solved, for the time being...

    Thanks for all your help guys. Truly an invaluable service :)
