Help needed with 2265, any good repairman in Israel?

[dario54]

My 2265, totally recapped and flawlessly working for the last 10 years, suddenly started to make like pink noise, more concentrated on the right channel, sometime louder sometimes lower but not related to the volume level.

Also AFTER deoxing each pot everything worked fine, then after 3 hours again started again, now the power button is broken and I need to unplug the unit from the outlet in order to turn it off.

Read many messages on AK and other Marantz related answers on the Internet, the more I read the more I get confused, power board problem, power button problem, I opened my 2265 to clean the pots with Deoxit, and checked for visual damages on what you can see removing the top cover and the bottom plate, but saw nothing.

Do anybody can suggest a good repairman for my baby here in Israel?? Any suggestion what is originating my 2265 problem??

Thanks for any help...

Start with the basics. You said you deoxited it and the noise stopped for a while. That seems to indicate a mechanical problem ( "seems to" - have I turned into a lawyer now?)

Just to be clear, was it both channels but only at different levels?

Gently work all the controls to see if you can either get the noise to start and stop. That will at least narrow that problem down to where it's coming from.

Post your findings.
