Hi everybody,
My story: I bought a VHT 2/50/2 off of eBay, loved it. Love It! I'm using it with a Peavey Rockmaster Preamp driving an Avatar 2x12 loaded with celestions.
Bummer is, it runs hot. I'm just going on the way the top plate feels as I run it for 30 minutes and up. I leave one rack space above it, so it doesn't cook the Peavey, and for ventilation. It still seemed to get too hot to me. I finally started using it with the top plate off, as it would start to show an intermittent volume fade after warming up. The fan works fine.
I believe that the previous owner may have experienced this-the unit was shipped sans most of the top plate screws, and they got lost somehow. I asked for info., but in classic eBay style he wouldn't communicate after-sale.
I need to get this VHT into a shop that is completely reliable. Does anyone know of a good tech facility that's trustworthy and in the Southern California area? Thank you so much for any info-I really need this thing back on its feet.
