Allaerts down-repair or ??


After about a year in my system,the ECO has ceased to produce any sounds from the left-hand channel.After speaking with my dealer and Audio Advancements,I was told that it would take at least 6 months to get the cartridge repaired.After inquiring further,it appears as if 24 months or more may be the "real" time period.
Would having someone else take a "look" be an unwise course of action,as this would negate my "warranty".
Your thoughts?
Happy Holidays and thanks in advance for your response.

I would email Jan directly. He's very nice to deal with. Things have been a bit difficult recently as he had a family bereavement, I believe. I had my MC1B rebuilt by him. It took 8 weeks and 800 euros.

TP,

I sent my cartridge directly to Jan by insured post. It's quicker. He emailed me once he'd received it and usually answers his emails.

I think he's quite proprietorial about his carts and doesn't like anyone else rebuilding them. Mind you, his rebuild costs for a top end cart are pretty reasonable.
