Not as dramatic as you'd think though. I was using the shop's jd502b Jolida tube amp, listening in the 9 o'clock position to pachelbel in the dark (watching that magnificent tube glow). And buzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZZZ I look up to see a runaway 6550 tube glowing like a boiler plate and snap. The fuse went.
In the Jolida's defence it's a knackered older one sent out for auditions often, and it was the original tubes still!
Now I'm back on the Naim while they fix it.
