I replaced the tubes about 4 years ago so the tubes shouldn’t be the problem (I’m guessing). It looks like what ever went out/burnt leaked some black oil like substance on a small part of the circuit board.

Had the amp on the kitchen table for the past two nights trying to read up on what could be the problem. But the wife told me to pick it up because the smell that came from the amp was still strong.


Read something that it could possibly be magnesium magnet leakage?

Yikes.

Sounds like that’s a capacitor leaking electrolyte honestly.
