I have read they tend to push the valves very hard in their amps, or at least used to, so reliability can be an issue.
hi ali,i had 1 for 10 yrs,and then it broke posted away to be repaired over 2 and a half yrs ago and never saw it again:eyebrows:eyebrows::(:eyebrows::steam:more info later;)thanx for the reply maria

Ummm
Tube technology is still in business after coming back from a hiatus.
I know the guy behind TT very well and a number of years ago his wife died suddenly and this pretty much wiped him out. I spent a good three hours on the phone talking with him one afternoon, with me pretty much just listening as he poured his heart out to me.
I was sad to see TT sort of vanish, but Zia and his wife were soul mates and a lot of men don't recover from this sort of loss. Not too long before the death they had moved TT and themselves to Wales and I know afterwards that Zia was thinking of moving back south. I lost touch a few years ago (after my redundancy forced me out of the audio industry) so I don't know what happened later on.
However not long ago I started to see adds again in the hifi mags relating to the brand so I suggest you contact Music arch their UK exclusive retailer for more info.
Not only is Zia a really nice guy but many TT products are fantastic imho, though I do agree with Ali re the canning of valves a bit too hard, particularly with the Unisis.
What you describe as having happened Maria is not good, but I can assure you Zia is a very honest guy and I suspect some sort of cock up has occurred.

I agree with you regarding your amplifier and I was not seeking to excuse what has occurred.
I know nothing more than what I have told you. Contact Musicarch explain what has happened and once Zia knows (is reminded) I am sure it will be sorted out.

Yes indeed.
Once Zia knows/is reminded I am pretty sure he will sort it out. I would have all your details to hand though. Model, serial number, details/receipt for carriage to TT, date it was sent, details of any correspondence etc. I suspect that these will be asked for by Musicarch during your first contact with them.
