Audio Research SP-3A-1 part


I'm so sure this has come up before, but I can't find it.
Do any of you know where I can get a replacement green power on lamp for this unit? I tried calling ARC, and it went to a voicemail that said they'd call back. Well, I tried several times - no call back....

Also, mine is the Gold/Black version(lovely!) and like so many others I've seen, the gold on the face of the volume knob insert is scratched. I did determine that this is just a transparent "gold" toned finish on top of a normal spun aluminum disc.. I found a gold toned lacquer that can come close to matching, but not quite. That was Nicholas #2105 used for brass musical instruments BTW. Anyone else have any ideas?

ARC may be your best bet. Maybe you would get a better response from them if you said you were interested in sending it back to the factory for upgrade to SP3c.
Tell her to think of it as "repair and maintenance", cheaper than buying something new. If your otherwise good car needed a transmission rebuild for $2k, compared to a new car for >$20k, she would say "fix it", wouldn't she?
