Hello. I have a K200-A5 PA head, and I noticed that it acts differently than my K200-B6 head. It doesn't thump when I turn it on, just a quiet and breif (less than a second) oompf and some reverb clang. When I turn it off, the hissing only continues for half a second followed by a few small thumps. I also noticed that I have to turn up the volume half of the way to match the volume of my other head with the volume at 10 'o clock. Is this the same kind of thing that the person with the combo organ was talking about with the filter caps? If so, is it a fairly simple repair or should I leave it to an amp tech? Thanks!


P.S.- the amp still gets freakin' loud (and sounds awesome), i just have to turn it up a little more than my other amp through the same cabinet.
