I just purchased a 2016 Maz 18. I've owned a couple older models. After playing for about 15-20 min, the volume cuts out to about 10% or sometimes zero but with a steady hum. I've replaced each tube, starting with 2 different sets of good power tubes, and then went down the line and replaced each preamp tube one at a time with known good tubes. I even replaced the rectifier. Each time I think it's fixed but after 10-15 mins it goes out again. Just like it needs to hit a certain temperature or something to short some component out. It crackles loudly and fades as the power disapates when you turn the power off Each time after it has cooled down it sounds absolutely perfect until it cuts out again. Please help with any ideas?

When it’s crackling and cutting out do you notice any flashing or extra brightness in any of the tubes?

Get some DeOxit and clean all jacks, especially the loop.
