Default Do old school amps age well?

Hi,



I just want to have your opinion on this. Do old school amps keep their power rating and THD rating after more than a decade of use?

Also, can you say an amp who was reliable when it was made is still reliable many years after, even if it has been gently used?



Thanks in advance.

Some power supply filter capacitors will dry out over time. Everything else, if it still works it still works.
