Had this amp just less than a year

Tubes look good
Power stays on
Jewel stays lit
Tubes stay lit

Sound drops out after about 10 minutes
Standby on for 30 seconds gets sound back for about 30 seconds
Power off for 30 seconds gets about 30 seconds of sound

Cables are good
Worked the speaker connection to remove potential carbon

Thoughts?

Hi birdinlay,

It could be any one of a few different things, it sounds like a poor connection, maybe the solder joints on the input jack. Try the other input jack and see if it works.

I'd check for bad solder joints on the power tube sockets too. When they get warm, you can get intermittent or no connection to the power tubes. Be sure they are both glowing. It happened to mine.
