HELP! My amp took a crap last night. Loud crackling sound that sounded like the speakers were going to explode. Even with nothing plugged into the amp head and all volume control shut down, crackling sound is still present. Tried different speakers and still there. Something must be fried. Reverb tank is unhooked so know that's not the problem. Where do I start? Checked speaker cords and they work fine on other amps. Power cord has been replaced with grounded plug and resistor was removed. Up until now, this has been a great amp. Have a very good Fluke meter so point me in the right direction please.
