Hey, not sure if this is the correct place to post but I don't see any obvious better places to post. My little dot within the last month started crackling in the right ear as the amp turned on and warmed up. Shortly after, the right ear became almost completely off. The left side worked fine but the right was gone. I took out the tubes and cleaned them up with alcohol. Same issue. So I tried to swap the power tubes just to see and when i turned the amp on, one of the power tubes began internally sparking and arcing so I shut it off. I swapped back the power tubes, also swapped the driver tubes and same thing. The issue never changed sides, always low volume on the right. I also swapped out the driver tubes for another set i had. No dice. Any tips would be appreciated, i'm definitely out of warranty for this thing. Are there any certified little dot repair shops? I'm pretty handy, so I could DIY it if needed.

Thank you for your time.

Did you try to put in new power tubes? (And trash the old ones.)
