Repairing Kustom 200 4 CH PA head [message #28014]

Hi, everyone. This is my first post, so thank you for reading. I purchased a gold sparkle tuck-n-roll Kustom 200 4-ch PA head in the late 90s and used it periodically over the course of 5 years. I noticed that it started to make loud popping sounds after it was on for a few minutes, and the sound didn't seem to be impacted by a signal going into the amp. I'd like to repair it, and I'm wondering if anyone could provide some guidance as to how to best diagnose the issue. Friends have suggested that it's likely the filter caps, but I don't know for sure. I'm not a professional tech (obviously), but I have a soldering station, a multimeter, and some other basic tools. I'm hoping this is something I can do myself because I think the cost of a repair is greater than the value of the amp itself. Any guidance is very much appreciated. Thanks.
