It is a really nice amp. Make me an offer!

I looked at the big auction site as a result of your last post. Wow, asking prices for those have gone insane! If I had one that needed boards, I would cut two .060" aluminum plates the right size, install chassis-mount sockets and wire it point to point. OTOH, I wouldn't want to have to do that after spending $1,000 for one. Yikes!
Beyond my skills level. Honestly I build these things like kids do paint by the numbers.

Would you be able to remove the boards and send them to someone? That would certainly be less expensive than shipping the entire amplifier. Is it out of the question to buy new boards?
Can you recommend someone to reach out to for repairing the board? I'd certainly be open to that.

I would offer to help, but I'm up to my ears with a SET project at the moment. It might help to know the skill level involved. Can you post a couple pics of the damage?
Just sold it to viridian, further up the thread. But thanks again for your input.

OK, good deal. Sounds like it's going to a good home.
I tried the board being sold on eBay and it has completely different dimensions than Shannon's boards, so it wouldn't work. There is a guy on diyaudio offering a board that seems the right size and I'm looking into that. I do have a bit of attachment to this amp, having built it 20 years ago and used it ever since. It does sound really good, even on my Quad electrostatics which are notoriously revealing.

That was my suggestion too, TK. That is, unless the amp really doesn't suit the original poster's needs.
