Audio repair in New York State

I'm in the Hudson Valley NY Orange County. (near the chopper guys) Looking for a competent repair shop to fix my Harman Kardon AVR-340. Not getting much information from HK support. I've found one local shop that is currently repairing my Denon AVR-4802R, but he's had it over a month and not sure if I made the right choice with that, but hoping for a good result. Meanwhile any input would be appreciated. Of course it would help if I could find a repair shop close by, but if I have to ship it out I would consider that option. Just seems like such a gamble finding competent repair people.
Thank you!
