Time to bring your 'Canes to the doctor.
The meter reading clearly indicates something's not right. What the problem is can only be diagnosed by a tech. When I first got my amp from another Audiogon owner, UPS dropped it and crushed an internal component. It read the same as your meter indicates. A year later, it read the same thing and indicated some resisters had "blown".
My repair guy says inevitably tubes will flucuate and they cause the resisters associated with the tube to "blow" like fuses. Furthermore, he said expect it to happen about every 12-18 months. After discussing the situation, I decided to have him install a fuse in each amp because I'm keeping my amps and lugging a pair of 70 pound amps back and forth to him every two years wasn't a pretty prospect.
I like my 'Canes a lot and will keep them forever. Consequently, I invested some monies for preventative maintainence for the fuse and some other parts upgrades as well.
The 'Canes, I discovered afterwards in reading different posts, require some maintainence which is why I think people are selling them after a few years. I love the sound of my 'Canes but the upkeep was a surprise.
Good luck and enjoy your amps because I love mine...when they're working.
