Clean your contacts

With any gradual deterioration in sound I first suspect contact oxidation. So I would suggest cleaning the speaker and cable contacts and the power amp section binding posts as well as all interconnect plugs and the jacks on the Halo Int.

You can use any number of contact cleaners from deoxit onwards.

That would be a cheap and easy thing to do and would rule this out as a factor. The possibility of your steadily baking your amp into oblivion is a rather negative outcome you want to rule out.

Besides this, there is room to experiment with speaker placement to tame the tonal balance, but you didn't mention changing positions prior to the rough top end showing up so I am not expecting this to have been a cause but just a possible avenue to improve things.
