Mushiking Monitor - lack of blue

Post by corn »

Inspired by the Muhsiking that is currently on sale (great little cabs) I thought I'd fire mine up and have a quick play (beats watching crap TV with the inlaws!).

Much to my dismay, there appears to be a distinct lack of Blue - in fact, blue doesn't appear at all on the test screen :(

Knowing naff all about monitors I've no idea if this is likely to be a problem with the Chassis or the Tube.

Any ideas if this is likely to be fixable/costly to fix?

:(

I knackered the monitor in a woody that way. Did you leave it 24 hours in a warm room before switching on?

Blue gun could have gone...

You got access to a tube analyser? I'd lend you mine but it set itself on fire last time I used it... :D

Nah - I just turned it on. I kinda knew I should have probably moved it somewhere warm before firing up - oh well!

As for a tube analyzer - I wouldn't have a clue where to start!
