Graham,

Thanks for the lead in Camas. I think I will contact them and see what they have to say. I would prefer not to ship it across the country. I could also have them check out all of my tubes while they are at it.

Happy Listening,

John

I would be very interested what the cause was.

  Cary's prompt response to my email inquiry:
  
  "Most likely what is happening is your filament supply is failing. You'll have to measure and monitor the voltage for the 300B tubes over time to see if it falls off to zero. If it does then it is most likely the rectifier bridge that is failing and will have to be replaced. Let me know what you would like to do."
  
  I will be taking it to Classic Tube Audio in Camas Washington this Friday; will post a followup once the repair is complete.
