    Exclamation VOX Odor?

    The Ad50VT 212 (2 speakers) has a cooling fan inside and I've been annoyed by the odor coming out of the vents since I got it. It smells like a combination of electronic components and the outer covering, I thought it might finally fade away but it's still pretty strong.
    Anybody else noticed this funny smell in their Ad50VT 212's???

    The only thing that stinks about my AD30VT is what comes out of the speaker while I'm using it....

    I owned a Vox amp in the past and it had a smell similar to mildew.
    Is this kind of what you're talking about?

    I think we all know that smell from our own amps...

    No but if I did it could only make it smell better. I wonder if it has to do with being made in VietNam?
