Re Building a power Amplifier


I  had a Metaxas Solitaire power amp in for repair.
Unfortunately the technician has advised me significant damage has occurred , but he was not prepared to conduct repairs , because other repairers have made out of spec repairs , and he is not prepared to work on other peoples mistakes.
OK fair enough.
He suggested, I sell it to anybody that may want it as a basis for a project. 
I am thinking of removing the PCB and replacing all the output transistors , capacitors and all other components on the PCB.
Any repairs to damaged traces I can conduct once the PCB is clear and cleaned.
My soldering skills  are adequate , but i don't have clue how to bias the transistors! or any other issues that may arise.
Is this project a "bridge too far" for a novice or should I just have a go?

Honestly this is another reason I buy ONLY McIntosh amps as I hate things that dont work.

Without a schematic and bench test equipment (scope, spectrum analyzer, DMM, signal generator, power supplies, dummy loads, etc) you would be facing quite the challenge.
To OP, sorry to hear it but most of us have gone through something similar.  Other than contacting the company, I would ditch it and cut your losses. 

Your tech is correct, these amps were notoriously unstable in design, way too fast in bandwidth for their own good, out to 5mhz.
When they went up they took half the neighborhood with them.
You could think you repaired it all go to turn on, even with a variac and Chernobyl will follow yet again without notice.
He advised you correctly to cut your loses and get rid of them.
