OK finally traced that smoking smell. It was a completely shorted out canned ohm resistor in the power supply. I saw smoke rising out from below the 40/40 filter cap and went to investigate (pulling the plug of course). I lifted up the metal chassis and get an intense burn on my index finger dropping the chassis cussing out the pain I noticed the metal directly under the canned ohm resistor on the chassis was RED HOT
No wonder my skin was blistered and red! I have a reasonable suspicion that the resistor may be what is dragging down my high voltage. Know the set was on for about 2 minutes. I hope that didnt hurt anything. Hopefully that may fix my no sound too?
