Laney 5 USEFUL HINTS AND TIPS 4: Connecting your guitar to either the 'HI' or 'LO' input has an effect on the sound regardless of the guitar type/pickup configuration. The 'HI' socket provides more gain and extended treble, but with less bass. The 'LO' socket provides a full range signal with extended low frequencies and lower gains. You should expermient with both inputs to find the one which suits your guitar, style of playing and gives you the most tonally pleasing results.
Laney 6 VALVE REPLACEMENT AND TROUBLE SHOOTING SOLUTION 3 Replace the secondary fuse and turn on the power. View the output valves. IF one valve fails to light up, replace that valve. If the output valves check out OK, another cause of a blown secondary fuse is a damaged preamplifier valve. Start with valve V1 and replace it. Follow the above procedure. If the symptom persists, consult a qualified engineer, do not fit higher rated fuses.
