From the symptoms you describe Mike, it sounds like one or more of the filter caps in the power supply has taken a dump. I have never examined one of those amps but hazarding a "WAG", the electrolytics used on that chassis are likely common components that are available from any number of vendors. You might contact Steve at Angela Instruments or Tom at The Parts Guru about replacement parts and possibly a schematic for it.
