Hey all,
 
New to this site, and grateful for all the support being shown. I wondered if anyone has any experience with a Trace Elliot 715 being noisy. I tinker with electronics and a friend has given it to me to see if anything can be done. The bass still comes through fine and is loud and punchy, it's just plagued by this background noise. Has anyone had similar issues with a Trace and managed to resolve it? I can't see any obviously blown capacitors or anything, or is it time to sling it on ebay...
 
Here's a video and pic of the offending amp:
 
Cheers
Dave

I can't give any constructive advice other than TE amps are normally built like tanks and can be repaired. Your local amp tech could probably repair it for not much. There's a list of amp techs here:

If all else fails the fellas down at Ashdown (most of whom worked at TE previously) can probably repair it.

Good luck and welcome to the  forum.
