I agree with Blue Swan. I've had mine since early 2010. Only problem is the big red power switch (this is the original KBA-75 which I refer to as the gold one since the second model of the KBA-75 is called the platinum.) The switch is still available, but it failed again. Since I know electronics I put in a heavy duty black 20 amp toggle switch and so far so good. A few hints. 1) check that the fan is running or it will die. I put one layer of tissue paper, taped at the top near each exhaust port, so it blows when the air is coming out. Every one in a while I check that 2) Make sure all of the fuses are the correct amps and type (fast blow or slow blow) 3) I think there are other last chance fuses inside on the boards 4) never mess with speaker cables with it on - I think an output short would be deadly 5) unplug it during a thunderstorm - the power supply is on standby when the switch is off
