With a couple of club-owner pals, I'm sometimes called upon to install or repair small sound systems. A few years ago I lost my awesome (and cheap) guy who was great with repairing power amps and even some instrument stuff.
So anybody got a good, fast, cheap (I know, I'm supposed to pick 2) wizard in Manhattan for old busted power-amps and the like?
Also: anybody use that guy downstairs from Rogue? He looks like he does anything you bring him. Thanks.

The guy downstairs from Rogue is NOT FAST. in fact he took over 2 months to do that last repair i took in...
i was keeping in contact with him on it. at one point he FORGOT who i was, and what i had brought. i gave him my invoice number he could not find the amp and told me to come back at the end of the week!
i understand that some parts are hard to locate, and that may have been the case with my repair. i would never know though, as the level of communication he offers is well below what i would consider adequate.
let's put it this way, my experience with him prompted the purchase of a soldering station and a nice multimeter!

While they're outside of the city (Long Island), these guys rock! They're fast and do great work. They may be able to pick up and deliver to/from the city.
