Vintage Amplifier Restoration

What is involved in vintage amplifier and receiver restoration, and how much does it cost? What else do need to know? How long does it take?

Cost ranges from approximately $500 to $1000 or more for larger amps and receivers.
Our backlog ranges from three to four weeks on average. It can vary, as much as eight weeks.

No deposit is required. We simply ask for your approval for a number in advance based on repair costs for the same or similar models.

Lamps are replaced and incandescent lamps upgraded to correct warm color LED where possible.

All controls and switches are cleaned
Power amplifiers are biased and balanced
