Sorry, just noted your (expanded) response and see the $500-700 price range. Rega integrated used will still get you there. Yes, I would still leave the Sonata behind unless you must have the MC preamp section I seem to remember.

Howdy, and thanks for any advice. A combination of fatigue and laziness resulted in me blowing the right-side channel in my beloved 1993 B&K Sonata 202+ amplifier a couple of days ago. It's just the right stage, everything else works fine, and I've checked all the fuses and they are okay. My real problem seems to be locating a company that can repair it. I live in Dallas, TX, btw. I'd prefer to repair it since it's paired with a matching 93 Sonota Pro-10 MC pre-amp but if I just can't find anyone to repair it, could I get some advice on a comparable amp to replace it? Vintage or more modern works, I guess, but that's the route I'll have to go if I cannot find a shop or company that can do the repair. Thanks for any advice, it's much appreciated.
