Yeah, I lived with a hissy noisy one for about a year beofre it was taking 15 minutes instead of a few to stabilize. I got lucky on that one as I swapped the rectifier and that was it. The amps are the easiest as those are assessable and I can swap those 3 back and forth in a few seconds.
But, it's probably about time to just bite the bullet and retube everything and do a good cleaning. I think I had the same ones in service for nearly 6 or 7 years. Luckily, I believe that I have more than enough spares, except for the 5881s perhaps.
