Clearly, you do not subscribe to a fundamental principle, "...its YOUR machine, you paid for it, you may do whatever you wish with it". In short, you should be able to have any capable person you wish repair it. If you are unfamiliar with this fundamental principal you may wish to peruse RightToRepair.org, or a number of other forums. Your information is also erroneous. Audio Research does, in fact, make information available to repair facilities outside of the factory.
In the US, auto manufacturers attempted to impose repair restrictions in which only the manufacturers representatives (the dealers) would have access to the tools and information necessary to complete repairs on vehicles of their manufacture. The courts, particularly in California, have ruled this to be illegal in the US. You may wish to forgo the right to deal with whomever you choose because you enjoy the wherewithal and/or convenience the factory provides. Many of the rest of us feel uncomfortable about entrusting one entity to provide service and support for our expensive possessions.
