Hm, this is interesting. I have fixed one of my B2 power amps. It works very nice but the most important is that it looks like I have found a local technician who actually can do the job.
When I got a problem with my second bough B2 I called to Stereo Surgeons at East Hartford, Connecticut . Kenneth Bernacky is very experienced and very responsible in his work person and I felt very comfort able to send both of my B2 to him. Unfortunately Ken also have highly paranoiac attitude and I asked myself of I want to be exposed to it. I did not want to hear lectures from him hot to live and how bad people around him – I wan fast fixing of my amps. So I was looking other avenues.
A few years back after the event with that retard repair-mad in Waltham who almost killed my R&S tuner I had a very pleasant conversation with a guy from QAudio in Cambridge. I never cared too much about QAudio but it was old QAudio. It looks like QAudio store was bought a guy name Dariusz. He care the same low-hi product line but his is the guy who does reappears himself. It looks like he is in town for a while and before owning QAudio he made rehears for other Boston shops that just collected jobs for him.
Like anybody else in this field he has his own attitude and he begun to explain me that that amp is garbage and need to be thrown to trash. I was taken back as I was not prepared to this move. When I go to doctor I do not anticipate that he would tell me that I need to die. Also, Dariusz did not strike me as the person with whom I might argue about Sound. However, his attitude toward to repair itself was in my estimation just what the doctor ordered. When I begun to explain to him what was wrong with the amp and what I did with it he with smile informed me that he does not care and I shall pretty much shut up and let the people who know what they do to do their job. With all honesty it was exactly what I was looking for in a technician. I instantly stopped to worry and in a few days I got my B2 in perfectly operational order, wonderfully repaired and serviced, the price was reasonable and the whole thing was great.
Dariusz, swiped it at full power and the amp got perfect symmetrical clip at 153W – what else to expect! If he fix my second B2 and have some extra time in his hand I might commission him to finally assemble the Zarathustra II. I am very enthusiastic as he is looks like know what he does and he is young enough do not behave like a jerk.
