Does anyone have any experience/recommendations regarding either of these repair shops in Kansas City?

http://www.audiomartservicecenter.com/

http://www.kcstereorepair.com/

I'm looking for somone to (a) install/align a new cartridge on my "vintage" Denon DP-31L turntable, and do any other necessary cleaning/lubrication, etc.; and (b) go through my "vintage" Karman/Kardon hk740 receiver.

Audio Mart is an authorized in/out of warranty service center for both Denon and HK, and KC Stereo Repair is also an authorized center for HK.

Both responded quickly to my e-mails, and seemed very accomodating.

I'd accept any other ideas, as well. Years go, I took the HK receiver to a place in mid-town Kansas City for a minor repair, but I don't think that place is around any more.

Thanks.
