Audiophile Equipment Repair?

Looking for recommendations for a place/person who works on audio equipment. My DAC has a broken (snapped off due to my clumsiness) COAX port on the back that needs replacing. Seems like a fairly simply repair, but I'm not qualified to attempt it. Would appreciate a name and email for someone with the right skills for this.

In another thread an A'goners might have had a bad outlet in a conditioner.  Im pretty sure we spent more time talking about how to diagnose and fix it than it should have taken to drive to the hardware store,buy and install a replacement.   🤣

I really believe that an audiophile should be able to repair their own electronics.

Honestly I hate repairing things in my electronics or home, but the lack of qualified techs (including plumbers, electricians, etc.), time to get the work done and costs really force my hand at times. 

I don't think an audiophile should necessarily be able to effect simple repairs, but those who do will spend more time listening to their gear than those who don't.
