Got a reply from Steve! He regrets not being able to repair my unit as he does not have access to parts any more but he did recommend someone. He says that when he closed down GNSC he put out a list of qualified/willing techs that would work on st...

Wadia 850 repair? Suggested replacement?
mb1, I read online reviews of SE after and saw a lot of people get treated the same way. I just spoke to the guy over the phone and didn't like his "tone". One of the reviews mentioned In Living Stereo and I called them up. Unfortunately they don'... 
Wadia 850 repair? Suggested replacement?
The guy I spoke to at SE was pretty condescending so I don't think I'll be bringing my Wadia there. I'll contact Steve and see what he says.bigkidz, if it doesn't work out with Steve I'll contact you. Thank you :-) 
Wadia 850 repair? Suggested replacement?
Georgelofi and mb1audio02 thank you for your suggestions. I will reach out to Stereo Exchange. I thought about reaching out to Steve Huntley but GNS is no longer and I'm not sure if he will work on old Wadia gear at RA. I guess I'll find out soon ... 
Classe' CAP-151,are there reliability issues?
I have a CAP-100 I got here on Agon and it has never given me any problems. I also have a CA-200 I bought brand new back in 1997 that has only been sent once to Classe and that was my fault. They fixed it N/C thru my dealer. The older models built... 
Replace Classe CA-200 with Pass X350, do it?
Thanks for your feedback and opinions. I took too long to decide and the amp is sold. Too bad as I checked with Pass and that particular amp apparently was a transitional one that had the same output stage as the 0.5 model. I think I will bade my ...

Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive?

Krell FPB 200, comments?
Thanks for all your opinions.Re: platsolos comment, maybe it was the source component or material being played or perhaps the room was untreated (Nrchy may be on to something)because i heard my speaker(3.6) hooked up to an FPB-700(before i took it... 
Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive?
I used to drive an 88 Acura Legend coupe. I drove it for 275K miles but had to put it to sleep. It would have been too expensive to keep on the road as it was starting to fall apart. So lately i've been driving a 95 Galant. I hope to remedy that t...

Anyone Switch from Electrostatic/Planar to Dynamic
I recently picked up a pair of Thiel 3.6s and they're GREAT! I still have my Maggies(2.7QR) and ML Aerius and i wont give any of them up. They're like my children, they each have their own characteristics but the bottom line is I love them all. Th... 
How does one get off the merry-go-round?
I agree with Btstrg, i dont think you really get off the merry go round. You lay low for a couple of months or years then you get the itch to upgrade yet again.
