Classe CT 5300

I own a Classe CT 5300 that I can only use 3 channels now. Does anyone have experience in getting one fixed and brought back up to spec? Also,  a rough estimate of what it would cost? One channel is out and other weak. I realize this is probably a very crazy question. I think it is an excellent amp and wonder if it is worth fixing of just replacing. I appreciate any advice for those experienced in this area.

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
