I bought it in September 2007, and it's August 2017 now. That's 9 years 11 months and some change.
I powered the amp up, hit play on the reel to reel, and walked into the kitchen. I heard a loud crackle, and then the music began to slowly fade out (as if the power switch was turned off while a source was still playing).
There was a slight smell of burning electronics, and I checked the tubes. Three were warm, and one was stone cold. I'll take the amp apart and take a look at it soon.... but before I do, any ideas what could have transpired here?
