Andrew - i didn't know you had an ASL amp too.

Good luck, I don't know anyone. I'd like to have my amp looked at. I'll let you know if I find someone.

Try the Sound Well in Berkeley.  If they can't do it they'll probably know someone locally that can.

thanks!  i am going to give them a call to check out the situation.  i hope it doesn't run me too much.  i have been using my "crappy" surround sound digital system for playback recently, and it isn't the same - not as much warmth, even with the new neumann recordings.

Teddy, if nothing works out locally, I will be in touch.

Tim - I picked it up from pfife a little over a year ago... i think the shipping from memphis > San Francisco is when it was damaged, but it took me a couple months of time to get a place and get this set up.

good luck!
