There is unquestionably an issue. What the issue is hasn't yet been determined. If they don't find anything that amp is gone.

Len Rabinowitz said:My issue wasn't hiss- this a little bit noisy of an amp. It was initially a hum, and then an almost total loss of volume. Both of these on both channels, 5 watt setting only.

Here’s what the repair ticket said, as best as I can read the handwriting anyway:
“Replaced leaky 115/400v coupling cap, one side of driver tube. This was killing one side of power amp, giving no signal in 5 watt mode. Replaced R125 (a part location on the circuit board I think) stuffed wrong part with 5k6/7w. Wrong part was producing hum in 5 watt mode.”
I don’t suppose you tech sorts can translate that into English?
How the heck did a wrong part get in there anyways?
Thanks!
