Recently picked up a fully functional, incredible condition for its age C28 preamp that was last serviced in the 80's. While I'm perfectly comfortable soldering and changing caps and testing specs on parts, the value add is by having it looked at by a certified Mcintosh service center.
I've recapped 10-12 Pioneer receivers over the years, a few Yamahas, and countless tube amps and tube radios, so replacing any out of spec parts isn't an issue, but if I decide to sell it, the value of attaching a receipt for service from a reputable shop just may be worth the investment.
To that end, who is the reputable Mc service shop? And are there any in the North Eastern part of the country? I'd prefer not to ship it.
If I do choose to refresh it myself, is there a replacement parts list anywhere? In the Pioneer section of this website, there are BOM's for purchasing all the parts needed from Mouser that makes ordering a breeze. Anything like that available for the Mcintosh?
Thanks,
Tom
