Hello,
I owned both a SSP-800 and a CA-2300 amp. the processor had multiple issues, needing repair 3 times. I fixed it twice then sold it for parts. While the amp had no issues, I would be reluctant to pour much money into it. Modern amps sound so much better, to me. I would also note that many feel the 'made in China' versions are less reliable than the 'made in Canada' versions. This is easily seen on the unit's rear.
Good luck! Ken
