I’d ship it to Audiobill—he does excellent work and is super easy to deal with. Shipping will cost you $75 bucks but that is about the cost of time/gas if you drive it a couple hundred miles to/from a repair shop.

ST 120 tube amp repair
Can anyone recommend a good VTA technician in the Southeastern states? My three year old ST 120 amplifier lit up an output tube so I bought a new matched set. After installation, bias adjustment and 100 hours playing time, I have distortion on some program material and a random "dud" sound without any program playing. Also, a "ping" when the amplifier is first turned on and warms up. I am willing to drive to a shop within 200 miles of Jackson, MS if anyone has a recommendation. Thanks
