Have you checked the DC offset. Not trying to be rude but it sounds like you really have little to no experience in repairing electronic equipment. If that's the case take it to a qualified technician.
You don't mention anything about what components you've measured/checked up to this point and the whole "channel inversion" comment leads me to believe you shouldn't be repairing this yourself.
I recommended where to start, with the caps leaking. You can't always tell by the naked eye if they are leaking, if the amp as high DC offset then that's likely that's where to start.
Again I ask, do you have a schematic of the amp? Smelling an visually inspecting really won't tell you much if anything. You already know something is wrong.
H9"Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it. Differentiation by numbers is for those who do not".--Nelson Pass Pass Labs XA25 | EE Avant Pre | EE Mini Max Supreme DAC | MIT Shotgun S1 | Pangea AC14SE MKII | Legend L600 | BlueSound Node 3 - Tubes add soul! -
These amps sure seem to break a lot.

to all you people busting on the op's english, the feeling I get is that they are not native english speakers and are trying to speak as good as they can.
instead of making snide remarks, how about trying to interpret what you can and then tell the OP what you think and then he can clarify it.
geez
