Fuse Protection

 

 

A blown fuse in the VK-P6 may be an indication of a serious problem.  If a 

replacement fuse fails as well, no further attempts should be undertaken.  

Please contact the factory for professional service. 

 

The proper fuse ratings are as follows: 

 

 

For 100-120 VAC Units:  

 

2A 250V Slow Blow 

 

 

For 200-240 VAC Units:  

 

1.5A 250V Slow Blow 

 

 
 

WARNING:

 

 

Factory supplied fuses should be only replaced with the same type 

and rating parts. 

 
 

 

Servicing 

 

The Balanced Audio Technology VK-P6 should require no service other than 

changing tubes to maintain its high performance.  The vacuum tubes used in 

the VK-P6 are high quality 6922’s and 6SN7’s rated for approximately 5000 

hours of use.  Please direct any further service inquiries to the factory. 

 

 

Cleaning 

 

To remove dust, occasionally wipe the front and top surfaces of your VK-P6 

with a damp soft cloth.  If fingerprints appear, you may use a mild, non-

alkaline soap solution.  Do not use abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the 

fine finish of the unit.
