MHDT Paradesea Repair? New Tube?

I have a MHDT Paradesea+ DAC. I stopped working the other day. I tried another DAC and it worked fine. When i plug in the Paradesea i can hear a VERY faint sounds coming out of the speakers. I tried going USB, coax...no go. Could it be the tube died? If not, does anybody repair these things? Is it worth it?

"I am really questioning what he told you. Just because a tube is lighting up doesn't mean it isn't introducing noise."

I agree with this. A tube is NOT like an incandescent light bulb. Bad output tubes will continue to glow. That tells you nothing at all.
