| What does an electronics repair shop need to repair my Almarro 318B? Should be a very simple circuit. Any competent tech should be able to fix in a day or two. BTW, I've owned the 205 and 318A -love these amps! BTW2 - It was I that suggested to the owner that he should put a headphone jack on the 205 (which he did)... | |

| Is there a magic formula for spending on components in a system If money not an object, I'd spend an equal amount on each component. Each speaker is considered a discreet component. And wire, as a group, is considered a component.Compromise (since few have unlimited money) on wire, amplification, room treatmen... | |
