Poor quality control by Antec is definitely a strong possibility. I had an Antec Truepower Trio 650 that died suddenly after about a year and discovered a number of other people who suffered the same fate. The Trios have a 5-year warranty, but it took several weeks to get the replacement. Since I needed my computer sooner than that, I bought a Corsair 550W that has been trouble free for more than two years. I still have the unopened replacement Trio sitting on my shelf. When I built my new computer a few months ago I went with a Corsair 750HX.
