Hi guys, needing your sage advice ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I'm considering jumping the gun on a nearly 10 year old ENGL e570 preamp.
However I'm concerned that its age will give me more problems than it should. It looks clean on the outside... I haven't seen it in person but the description mentions no noisy pots. Should I be looking for something else ? Valves have been changed some years ago... but is there a natural wear and tear for capacitors and resistors that could lead me to a big service ahead ? And what about the EPROM use to store presets
The price is nice so it could accommodate for some "servicing" before buying it new would outweight the cost. But maybe there won't be the need for that at all ?
Thanks a lot for any tips guys!
