[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1150588, member: 176704"] We seem to have been concentrating somewhat on the possibility of there being "something new in the local environment", but here's another thought: What if the EMI suppression on an [B][I]existing [/I][/B]unit has failed? The mate that had had boiler interference later said to me that there had been a "bang" from his amp [I](and so he switched it off!).[/I] When I opened it up, I found that a contact suppression capacitor across the internal mains switch contacts had simply melted (and smoked a bit!) - so I simply snipped the capacitor leads and removed it, and the amp worked fine after that ( and without any reports of a new source of interference in the house!) .
