looking for US fuses

Hello,

I am looking for US fuses in ceramic casings.
Length is 31mm and diameter 6mm. 250V – (1/4A) 0.25A.

Could you please let me know if you have some spare ones or if you can advise on where I can buy them?

Thanks
Maciej

Thanks Fran for explaining the cause of the problem. After your recommendation all is sorted.

Those fuses are not easily available in here as I spoke today to few different merchandises trading with electrical goods and none of them had this size 31mm and with small voltage 0.25A in ceramic casing available.
As this fuse is used internally it is not recommended to use glass one according to the manufacturer of the amp.
Perhaps in US they are common but in here not so much. Anyway I got 2 fuses from the guy I bought the amp, he just forgot to give it to me. Since I’ve sent the e-mail I blew up another one. I was setting bias too high @250. Now it’s around 230 and all seems to be just fine.

Regards
Maciej

Was the bias off by much? Does it sound even better now?

Hi, not too much off the recommendation level. Sounds pretty the same to me.
Enjoy your break and do not worry too much about audio troubles right now;)
