2238B Issue

Hello again:

So, in a galaxy far, far away, in the not too distant past, I screwed up.

Shocking, I know.

I was (and remain) fighting to get rid of a hum from my Sirius satellite radio dock, and thought I had turned off the Marantz, and well... a little smoke, blew the fuse, and I cried. I pulled the cover and can see which two were harmed, on the top board on the right, but I don't know much about this, so I simply pulled the unit out, and purchased a 2252B as replacement. The 2252B helps with power to all the other speakers wired into it throughout the house and around the pool, but I don't like the second phono jack much, and miss the layout of the 2238B.

So, someone tell me my best bet here to fix it correctly. I have found a couple places here locally who seem knowledgeable, but I don't have big bucks to fix it, and when talking to them feel like fresh meat. I'd like to repair it and give it to my son, who is also a musician and gets it. I still have the original box and manual.

Best,

SJ
 
I hate to tell you but we're enjoying mid 60's here in AZ! You are kind of in the middle of where the techs I know are located. The closest is in Montana. The infamous (in a good way) "Catrafter". Marantz specialist and good guy if you are seeking a tech's services.
 
But of course you are...

Yeah, that’s a bit of a commute for me.

Maybe I’ll investigate a bit more here locally then.
