I have a question that may pertain to this post....If an older component has been dormant for a long time (maybe years) and not used, would that stop the maintenance/repair clock from ticking? I'm talking about electronic components such as caps, tubes, etc. Certainly there are items such as foam surrounds of some speakers that deteriorate with age regardless of use but does that hold true for electronics?
Aged components / service!?
I tried to get an insight in what is considered aged components in a pre amp. I look at a pre which is between 10-15 years old. Personally i kind of feel this is close to a no go. I get conflicting information with regards to service and age.
Do we have any members here who could actually teach me something regarding components and age?
Thanks!
