Yamaha M80 Amp

I recently acquired a Yamaha M80 amp on trade for a bunch of equipment I needed to part with. It was in good working order but now, the right channel has died. The only repair facility reasonably close to me closed its doors several years ago.

Suggestions? Too darn heavy to ship (at reasonable cost) but not sure I'd want to take it to a recycling center. I don't feel I really need the amp at this point. I purchased (don't laugh. fit my budget) an Emotiva PT2 pre and A2 amp. They play really nice with my KEFs.

I agree, find someone close enough to drive it to, have it fixed.

Let us know your location, perhaps a member knows someone near you.

My electronics shop has a technician who repairs things. Didn't know they had that for years.

I once had a computer shop fix an audio item.

IOW, in the words of the Saturday Night skit: "what should they do? FIX IT!"

Best of luck.

Any store selling audio equipment in driving range.?

They either have their own 'guy', or someone nearby to handle problems that occur.
