Need recommendation for repair service in CA bay area - McCormack DNA-1

@mike_in_md  OP said he already checked the fuses. 

This may be a very simple fix. I have the same amp. Take off the screws on the top of the amp. Inside are 4 rail fuses 2 on each side. If any of those fuses are blown the red light will not go out. Check  or replace those fuses and you will be back in business. Shouldn't take more than 30 minutes ad it may save you some aggravation. I was back in business for $6.00

I’m a SMc owner. While shipping is pricey now, I’d arrange for a return to SMc. You could ask about removing the transformer prior to shipping.....a possibility they gave me once

​​​​​​​I followed along with a few folks who checked into this with Pat/Steve, and we concluded sending it in and having the nice rebuild sure makes for a nice alternative while it lasts. And, you can end up with a really nice amp for the $, compared to buying and all-new amp, if you are open to it. I just did something similar with one of my own other brand SS amps.  It sure sounds nice, totally worth it, fwiw. Maybe worth a few phone calls to gain confidence going this route.  

Your best option is to send it to SMc Audio for repair. And it would be silly not to have it upgraded while it's there. Pat and Steve turn out some of the best sounding SS amps you're likely to ever hear. This is a perfect opportunity for you.

Give Scott Frankland Associates a call. They are in San Jose. Scott is a very competent engineer and does repairs on both solid state and tube equipment.

@newbee is correct.  No brainer give SMcAudio a call — they designed/built your amp and will be by far your best resource, and lucky you at least they’re in California (I had to ship them my amp from NJ 😖).  The input board on my DNA 0.5 RevA failed, which makes the amp not repairable so I decided to send it to them to do their full upgrade mods, which basically makes it a new amp with all their latest/best parts and thinking.  The only parts they kept from my amp was the case and the transformer only because it was already upgraded in the previous RevA mod otherwise that would’ve gone too.  Hope this helps, and best of luck. 

If a manufacture tells you, your amp is not repairable, DON'T BUY THEIR PRODUCT'S !!!!! Because I won't. 

FWIW, I've been investigating the McCormack lines looking for an amp for another system. I suggest you do some research as well. There have been considerable conversations about failures of an input board in the DNA .05 and DNA 1 model amps. I don't know if this could be your problem but if it is you may not want to pursue repairs. One of the posts in a thread is from McCormack describing the problem and why it is in their opinion not 'repairable', at least why they will no longer do so anyway.

Good luck............
