Dave- I am glad to see that this all worked out for you and eventually echoed my experience having the voltage converted to 120v when I bought a DAC-1. Great sounding unit and they did the work quickly and economically (course that was before they were bought). I do know that my local high end tech charges $150 minimum (2 hours) for bench work.
Is this typical Service?
I contacted Classe' and inquired about having my amp-Classe'Ten, and Classe'Four serviced.I suspect a problem with the amp although at the moment its working ok.
Classe' replied it would take a minimum of 4hrs to check out each unit at a cost of $75US.
I asked about the lifetime warranty and Classe' replied they would honour it provided I had the original receipts and boxes.
Does $75US(this is a Canadian copmpany)seem excessive and what is the big deal with the original boxes.Most people throw out the boxes after 14 or so years.
Is Classe' being fair charging over $600US plus shipping just to examine the amp and pre,or am I just an out of touch miser?
