Thank You for the sources.
Does anyone have a good repair resource in the Los Angeles area?
Thanks.
Google:
George Meyer AV ( I don’t have the web address offhand.)
It’s located at 4844 W. Jefferson Blvd, LA 90016 Ph. 310 820 113
It’s NOT cheap, but excellent and friendly service. They specialize in high end products. (I had a relatively low end CD/SACD player that they brought back to life.)
Recommended.
You could reach out to the LA/Orange County Audio Society: mikew.laocas@gmail.com
Best, Larry
