recently sold my zen in order to finance a new taboo.  problem:  buyer returned amp complaining that fuses kept blowing.  i seem to remember that fuses from 4-6 amps were suitable for the zen but i cannot find that info here and i did not receive a manual when the amp arrived.   anybody know?  thanks,  don pettit

Don -

The PDF manual for the SE84C+ says it's a 3 amp fuse...

By the way -- the manual mentions that if the rectifier tube blows, the tube will blow, too.  So, I wonder if it would be worth swapping rectifier tubes for troubleshooting purposes (if not already tried)...

the amp is still on the way back from hawaii.  i had the same thought as i had a rectifier tube act up and a fuse go about the same time and that was the first move i was intending to try.  i will do that and let you know.  thank you for your interest, mark.  don

agree, agree.  however,  the buyer is a fine person,  just not familiar with tube audio and i was not much help being one thousand miles distant.  i had sent two rectifier tubes and failed to ask if he had tried both of them.  my bad.  however,  the upside is that i am gonna end up with a taboo. yippee!   so, the zen is still available if healthy and i should know that by this time tomorrow. thanks for your input.  don
