Well..... I replaced the PET 8002 after the input with a 2N3904..... while it DID bring the BRIGHT channel back to life, its clearly either not right or there are further issues.

The dead Bright channel now works, However,

It works best in the LOW input, the Bright input is weak and thin

Also

when you engage the BRIGHT Boost, the volume drops significantly.
Finally, there is also a lot of HISS, particularly the higher the TREBLE is turned up?

Any thoughts?
