RE: Corona, maybe?

thanks for the reply!

and yep, hairs on arm when positioned near that corner do stand up, very much so. that is how I noticed the issue.

will look for bluish glow tonight but I don't recall seeing such.

there is no tranny close in that corner, just a big cap. It is a factory assembled version but I did some minor repairs about 3 months go, after almost 20 years of use - replaced all the power tube anode caps, and 4 bad 640v capacitors.

Never noticed this issue until last few weeks.

I have Bruce's book that shows the schematic and parts list (80 watt mono version) but it calls out the differences for my 25 watt stereo version.

Always wish I had bought the 80 watt version but - as my indian friend said when I told her I should have married an indian girl - too late now :)
