This Monster amp has been here a few times over the years, assorted problems, most being intermittent noise. Usually, its bad solder connections on the circuit boards. So, of course right before a show, it acts up and I'm in a pinch to get it road worthy. Lucky I had a clue of the fault, so the repair was rather quick. If you have noise as described here, take a look at the preamp section first. Save yourself the work of removing that giant heavy chassis. The reissue Ampegs are great amps, they just suffer from the PCB plague. Sorry, I did not go into more detail like I normally do. I have been taxed out lately, falling behind. Don't want to let my customers down, but due to time constraints, it is happening. TD
