Aloha All,Living in Hawaii has its disadvantages when it comes to getting Equipment fixed.
We do not have technicians on island.
Long story short, I have a Marantz 250M that has some damage from shipping. The seller has submitted a claim and I’m wait for that to process.
However, it doesn’t take away from the fact that the Amp still needs to be fixed as well as an update in components as it’s all original and never been served!
The damage is to the right front potentiometer which appears to point to the left. This is caused by the mounting panel more likely being bent.
See attached picture.
The front panel was removed for shipping.
I don’t think the potentiometer is broken or bad, just the hole through the mounting plate is bent.
The front panel will not currently fit on the front because the right pit is bent to far left and won’t align with the front plate holes.
Anyway, I’m hoping someone can point me to a reputable technician somewhere in California which is closer than a guy I talking to in Wisconsin.
The 2nd 250M that I purchased is arriving today and it has been in shipment since March 26!
I would appreciate any recommendations!
