Levinson repair costs?

I have not had any problems with them. They did quote me $900 max to fix my No.29 amp. I ended up buying the caps from them and they were very helpful over the phone. I had a tech in St. Louis do the job because of a recomendation from a friend. I would not hesitate for a second to buy a ML product. I love my No 29 amp.

My 380S can sometimes be afflicted by scaling glitches with the photo-read rotary volume control beyond the unity-gain point. Anybody have that problem and pay ML to get it fixed?

Same problem with my unit (380s) Do you have repair this problem with your 380S ?

Giltone: I imagine this must have been a not-uncommon problem with 38-series preamps. I haven't done anything about it in mine yet, mostly because I'm wary of the cost, and the fault is only intermitent and usually user-correctable when it happens. I once emailed ML with a few questions about the subject though, but got no reply. I was kind of hopeful that ML would someday offer an upgrade revision to these preamps based on the volume control developed for the 32 and 320/326 models, but I guess that's not going to be in the cards.

Why don't you call Jamie Cohen in Tech Support. Good place to start. Look the number up on the web.
