Would you pay $$$$ to have a photo of your parents restored so that you can put it in a place of prominence in YOUR home ? Would you pay $$$$ to have a recording of your child's first words so that you can listen to it years later in YOUR home ? Would you pay $$$$ to restore a cherished audio system so that you can listen to it with your beloved in YOUR home ? If you answer "YES" to these questions, then it is a definite "YES" to spending $$$$ on anything that is so personal to your happiness as a vintage audio system. There is no pricetag on happiness !
Does anyone repair....
My significant other has a vintage Fisher 4404 Custom Electra IV (Model E44) that we loved to listen to old vinyl on. Classic sound through those original speakers, etc.
Anyway, it has reached the point where the hiss and buzz is way louder than the music. I suspect it needs some new tubes and/or other electronic repairs. I live in New Orleans. The closest (and truthfully only) place I found that might fix it is in another state aver 600 mi away. Shipping would seem to me to be expensive (that I am not worried about) but I fear for the ability to ship without damaging the console. Is there any suggestions or anyone closer to me who might be able to repair this?
Thanks for any help
