Mark and his staff are the best. They have made a great nich in servicing is your vintage equipment. Timely matter my receiver was fixed by. Looks like he went to the end to fix it right.Will be taking my other components to him also. I don't know the prices but you get what you pay for.Thanks for getting my 50 year old baby back.
Wow! What a great experience! The kindest people you could ever hope to meet. Helpful, friendly and very knowledgeable. Their inventory and craftsmanship is top-notch! Great place. Thanks Mark!
I have had several units serviced by these guys over the years. They have always done an excellent job. If an issue of some sort does arise (as one did today) they will go out of their way to make things right. And if there may be difficulty in getting parts they will let you know in advance. Highly recommended.
The woman at the service counter was incredibly rude. On their website there is a list of categories and one of the selections is VCR/VHS. I have a CRT/VCR combo and the VCR isn’t functioning so I called to see if they still work on them. No answer and the voicemail inbox is full. I decided to go there and ask instead. She said, “We don’t work on those anymore but if you’d like, I can charge you $95 to tell you the same thing.” Needless to say if any of my audio equipment needs repair, which they do work on, I will literally go anywhere else. And I’ll tell all of my friends with audio equipment to do the same thing. Cheers.
Highly recommend these guys for repair and restoration of any vintage audio pieces that are important to you! I had them restore a power amp that's very dear to my heart, my somewhat rare 1974 ESS Series Eclipse - Model 500. I was really apprehensive about shipping it way out of state for repair, but after my first phone call and a very helpful and friendly conversation with Mark, I felt confident they were the right folks to trust in. He guided me through the whole shipping process and thoroughly explained their diagnosis and estimate policy, and gave me an exact cost over the phone before they even started working on the repair.

I was really impressed at both the reasonable repair cost and they got it done and safely shipped back to me quite quickly. Very high quality parts were used for the repair. Very happy with the work they did, and it sounds excellent now and hopefully it's good to go for another 50 years!! There is a reason this shop has been going strong since the 1970's!
