    Have you tried Polk customer support? You might be surprized

    Yes, I tried customer support...they were very helpful. They told me to take a phiilips head screwdriver and remove the amplifier from my LSi25 and take it into a repair place. I went into Best Buy and they have to send it out of state (I'm in Nevada) to get it fixed. I could not find anyone else locally to do this type of work. Nor do I know where I can but a replacement amplifier. so I thought I would check out this Polk forum...Thanks for the reply.

    Don't send it in with Best Buy... that's a terrible choice.

    Find a local electronics repair shop, and get a quote. It will probably run you $50-100.

    ...Or you could just order a replacement from Polk perhaps?

    I am considering calling Polk and orering a replacement amplifier; tried to remove the amplifier but it would not release. Is it glued in to seal it? If I were to get a rplacement amplifier, how would I repalce it. Are there any special instructions or do I need a certified Polk repair tecnician to deal with this.
