marantz model 9 service

My 9's are the (reissue units) and we're  sent to VAC for another issue , that turned out to be horror story ! I'm not here to run them down but I think there focus in on the equipment that they are making under there own brand. Thanks, Huntingsnapcaps

Whart, I think I will give Bill Thalmann a (shout out) , do you have his contact info. Thanks Huntingsnapcap

Will  do,  Whart thank you so much ! I will give Bill a shout ! Huntingxnapcap

Thanks Opus III , That's what I'm trying to do is to avoid shipping , we had a great service tech. in the Birmingham, Al. area but he has retired ! Saw some of your threads about Audio Research, have gotten great service from them, wish the nine's (re-issued) were made by them . Thanks Huntingsnapcap

Latest on Model 9 service :  Contacted Audio Classic's and they suggested going back to VAC , talked to VAC's service tech and he was very helpful and nice. Sarasoto, Florida is as close as any other area that I would go for service so I going to give them a try ( might take a short vacation and drive them down ) . Thanks For everybody's help
