Are you saying that this behavior is behavior is characteristic for dried out capacitors? I need to admit that I know very little about solid state electronics and I have no idea how it ages. My amplifiers are 40 years old and certainly it would be common sense to deal with capacitors. They are all original and nothing was changed since there besides removing call commutation circuitries. I am a bit hesitant to do it as I have B3 that was "professionaly serviced" and all capacitors replaced but the unit does not sound the way how I like. I might do it in the future but it is like the story of this APS regenerator: since either I or they no why it sounds so good better not to touch it because any "fix" migjt screw it up. Anyhow, I need to test what I discovered yesterday more. I was told the solid state electronics need to be around all time. My Dac and my preamp never were turn off for probably 20 years unless I was living house for very long time. I know the preamp not only sound bad when it's cold but actually a remote control does not work unless it's plugged in for half of the day. One way or other I would be grateful if it would be the true reason with my "losing good sound" as it would be easy to fix. Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site
