Do a search on just how happy people are with AL. His restopaks are really nothing special for parts quality and $$$ for what you get. Why not send it out to a high quality shop to have it gone over? I had good luck with a shop in CT, and a tech in CA. What does it need but some caps replaced, and the controls cleaned. You can save some bench time by testing the tubes yourself and replacing the weak ones with good NOS ones. The old Fisher tube gear was bult like a tank and will outlive all of us. I can look up that shop in CT I used if you need their name. They did my McIntosh MR-65b. I own a Fisher FM-1000 tube tuner that is really nice quality unit. I used to own a Fisher 500c that I sold that also sounded very nice. Again do a few web searches to see the actual turnaround time, and just how happy AL's customers really are? AL does this on the side. Good luck! John
