That set normally runs a little on the hot side. You need to check the driver txfmr. for signs of overheating. If there is wax leaking from it, replace it. Also check or just replace the rectangular caps in the collector ckt. of the H.O.T. This problem is well documented, on most data bases. A little more time in researchng the problem may be in order. If no luck, get back to me, and I will find the correct caps, and part numbers for you. Good luck, LLW LeRoy Westlund Westlund TV & Electronics I've heard it said: 93 North Main "that a fool never learns" Centerfield, UT 84622-0087 It kinda reminds me of me.
