I have just acquired a 1967-1971 kustom k100c-8 4x10 combo amp. What is the wattage and ohm rating for the amp itself, and the speakers? Why do the speakers pop loudly when powered on, and off? Should the speakers be wired series/parallel, or parallel series? When I turn my power switch on to the left, the amp hums loudly, but when I switch it on to the right, it does not hum, Why is That? Is it supposed to take the trem/vib about 5-10 minutes to warm up before it starts working? Is there any way to figure out exactly which year model it is?
I realize that I have alot of questions, and I sure,do appreciate any advice that I can get. I've wanted one of these amps since I was a kid, and now that I finally have one, I want to restore it completely to its former glory. Thank you.
