Luxman M-2000 what to do ?

[PabloTincho]

I got a Luxman M-2000 amp and it is missing the left output transistors board, the whole board, the right board still there.
Got the amp online and was not aware of the missing board, I may try to get my money back

Is there any way someone can design a replacement with modern transistors ?

Maybe with the LM-3886 chip ?

see red for the missing board

Missing transistors would be relatively ok, but whole board? Thats why before buying always get photos of insides

I know, got it online, did not know about the missing board. I am going to fight for my money back, seller did not say anything anyway

Get your money back. Is the picture of another amp? I don't see what's missing.

Return it. Don't waste your time.

LM3886? That would be awful.

My tech is able to reproduce board , what are the equivalent output transistors but with the 3 legs ?

If you tech was half decent, you wouldn’t have to ask this. Return it.
