Need someone to repair and service my Marantz 2285B in the San Francisco Bay Area


My vintage Marantz 2285B receiver needs some help, the relays do not kick in reliably and has some dirty contacts on the control knobs.
I am looking for someone in the Bay Area to do the work. Anyone know of a reputable outfit with competitive pricing.
Thanks in advance.

Scott is the F in MFA (Moore Franklin Associates) infamous stereo gear and designed the infamous and current WaveStream Kinetics.  Scott still does older gear service work (and not just on MFA and WaveStream); I just had my MFA200Cs worked on...located in North San Jose.  When I dropped off my gear, I saw shelves of other brands he and his team are servicing.

Both Nick and Scott highly recommended.

Sorry you did not understand my parlance:

Read 4th paragraph "..inconspicuous..." Scott does not get a lot of a attention nowadays. I only have the highest regard for his work. I own MFA200C mono tube amps, WaveStream Kinetics tube preamp,Wavestream Kinetics tube line amp. And I stated explicitly I have used his services. 

Not to be harsh, if you call me out to "look up" a word, then you should have read the context of my response. Furthermore, I seconded Nick as a person I would personally use from experience as well as highly recommended both Nick and and Scott....as "highly recommended".
