I would list it for sale here, or on ebay as an auction with clear description of the issues and a "needs repair - as-is" buy. Someone will buy it happily, possibly at a surprising price.
Counterpoint SA-20 Amplifier
Not sure where to post this, so I thought I would start here and see if anyone can offer suggestions.
I have the subject amp, and the main fuse blew, and replacing it, same thing happened. Going by the Alta Vista Audio site, the probable cause is the main power supply is gone.
I am no longer in a position to support this amp, plus Mike Elliot doesn't fix them anymore anyway due to health issues, so before I take it to the local dump, is there a place to freecycle items like this. I guess it is not totally free, since they would have to pay the cost of shipping 70+ lbs of metal to wherever they are, but it is almost free.
Thanks
