All of a sudden I lost output A on ye old Triaxis. Output B is A-OK. Worked like a champ for 15 months.
Its not the tubes - swapped those out.
So now its heading to the shop tomorrow AM - I'll be in the area with the Mesa authorized repair place. I'm also dropping my pre-500 Recto there to have the relays looked at. I'd attempt it myself, but i really don't want to mess with the PCB. Lets pay out and get it done right.
My guess is a bad pot or cold solder joint.
Hopefully the damage won't be too bad.
So the next 5 or 6 days looks like its either a Fuchs ODS pre or Mark IV pre. Who knows I mike like them better, its just a pain. Or I could slave my plexi into the current rig - I like easy.
