I guess no one in the amplifier section knows anything so I will post this here. Heres the deal, I got this amp about 12 years ago, used it off and on until I started having problems with it 5 years ago. Tech replaced some resistors and put a matched set of 8 2879's in it, I used it about 5 times then moved and had it in storage.
Couple of months ago I pulled everything out of storage to find out that there were mice making nests in just about everything they could. Apparently it was just a recent incident as I have been checking my amps, radios, and power supplies and the worse of the group is my Earthquake. It has some chewed up wires which are no problem, but what I am worried about is the board. The little buggers pissed and crapped all over in there.
My question is, should I just salvage the caps, transformers, pills, etc ( all the salvageable stuff) and throw the rest away, or is the board still usable? I dont know if the urine on the traces ruined the board or not.
Maybe I should just put it up on fleabay and start the price at what the matched set of 2879's would cost.
Any input on this would be appreciated.
Thanks.
