[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8540858, member: 614752"] You don't think after 30+ years of designing and repairing amps that Stephen doesn't have some idea about amp design? My guess is if he won't touch it it's because folks have had trouble with that model in the past. Ampmedics refusing to work on it lends a bit of weight to that theory as well. DB-R in Texas does good work and The Amp Lab in Maine does a bit of amp repair though I know they're swamped in work at the moment. Might contact Memphis and see who their authorized repair guy is these days. Often the authorized repair shops have access to oddball parts. Last resort would be to just go old-school and solder some [URL="http:////forums/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=4"]#4[/URL] cable right to the board. Memphis Belle is a cool old-school amp though so hopefully you can get your money's worth out of purchase price + repair cost. I've had an issue in the past with having a power terminal broken off an amp in shipping and I can tell you it might be very difficult to source a new terminal that fits. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
