Need a Reliable Electronics Repair Shop
I'm looking for a shop or highly qualified tech to service a Carver SS amp. The right channel gain is very low and the problem happened during power-up, (transistors?). This is not my primary amp, but is definitely worth fixing.
I'm in PA, so I would appreciate a recommendation for a shop in the NE or on the East Coast.

@czarivey, I also heard there was something odd about that place and that it was expensive. Rita's (Bob Carver, partner) is closed and Vintage HiFi of Pittsburgh (Carver sales and service) is out of business. Anyway, I think my amp needs a routine repair and not a rebuild. Bill Flannery is now the service center for Sunfire and was set up in business by Bob. |
oddiofyl, I had an odd experience with carveraudiorepair when found them on the internet search. They advertise themselves as the only authorized service providers, but factually they're not. There's no convincing evidence of any their affiliation to Carver electronic equipment whatsoever or to Bob Carver himself who doesn't even know them personally. They're also in OR -- not anywhere near the EastCoast. When I spoke to them about my Sunfire amp starting to humm, I figured I'm speaking with crooks that want to overoverload you with bs. Shouldn't that ring the bell? |
