Lifespan of Power amps


What is a reasonable amount of time a power amp should perform without trouble, or need replaced? If kept in good, clean condition I'm guessing 20-25 years, is this correct? I have an 18 year old power amp and am just trying to figure how long it will be until I will need a new one. Does anyone think the technology is the same today as it would have been 18 years ago for amplifiers?

So other than tubes, capacitors should be the only parts that "wear" out and need replacing (assuming you take good csare of your equipment)?
