I appreciate the help...but I am well aware of whats online..and I have owned more decks than underwear seems like.....
reason for asking about repair is that some of the older Alpines are actually better sounding than the new stuff...they are better made and sound better...they just dont have all the bells & whistles....
I appreciate the help and it looks like its cheaper to get a different deck than to spend $95 on repair.....
....I have now bought a different deck off ebay and I fixed the old deck I was asking for anyhow....all by myself....
