hey everyone,
what a great place this is, just getting into this world and what a world it is,
i have a a88x integrated amp that was given to me, it had some problems with some crackling out of one of the channels, finally brought it in to a shop, they quoted me $280 to fix, wondering what people think,is this worth getting fixed or not?
thanks
