Who does Krell KSA-150 rebuilds/recapping ??

Looking for a qualified Krell tech for recapping / general looking over for potential problems etc. I understand the KSA amp lines "soft start" circuit was a problem being placed too close to its massive transformer. Being a Class A design, would at least like to get it checked out. 

Thanks

I passed on the KSA-150 and went smaller with a Ksa-50s ..... is working great on my Electron SE speakers. 

Still would prefer the Krell factory if ever needed, they do not seem to respond well.

My experience with Krell service was not good.  If you have older equipment pre Dan departure you are probably on your own.

Bringing things up to date for anyone interested... I am having my Krell KSA 250 serviced right now..in fact it is done and I just need to drive out there for a pick-up shortly. The interaction with them has been, professional if pro-forma, expensive (which is probably warranted) and hopefully resultant is a killer sounding Classic and classy amp. "probably on your own" just has not my experience with "pre Dan departure" gear. Krell is quite happy to service all their gear...and they are in still in Connecticut. I can see though, that if you are not on the East Coast, the thought of shipping this is hard to fathom.

I had Steve Leckrone at The Service Department restore my KSA250 last year.  He’s the “guy from Connecticut”.

The work was outstanding, and after break in, the sonics are excellent.

It was very expensive, with shipping etc.  But, compared to the cost of new amps, a bargain.
