Electron Kinetics Eagle 2 Repair Help

Hi All,

I just purchased an obviously used Electron Kinetics Eagle 2 amp serial number 774 and I am super psyched to finally own a John Iverson design.

Before plugging it in I opened it up. It looks nasty in there! Looks like both capacitors (both 80000MFD) are leaking, and that there was a serious short at the RCA outs. Also it looks like the top lid has been bent in enough to make contact with the terminals of the capacitors.

www.eagle-audio.com seems to be out of commission. Does anyone out there know of a dependable repair guru for these amps? Does anyone have schematics or a list of parts that I can purchase and try to fix this thing myself?

Does anyone know more about these amps and John Iverson.

Please be in touch!

Best,
Brett

Years ago I fixed one of those that the owner managed to blow up.

If its just filter caps and the like then its probably not that hard to sort out. Any independent shop (i.e. not Best Buy or the like) that can fix consumer electronics should be able to handle it (but don't expect them to be cheap about it)- if they can get the semiconductors! Some of those have gotten rare.
