Looking for reputable repair for Sony HAPZ1ES


One of my two Sony HAPZ1ES HDD players will not turn on. It has been an ongoing problem that needs repair. Both fuses inside unit are good but relay doesn’t engage when power cord is plugged in.

I am looking for either a private tech or a Sony service center that can work on this unit. It is still a current product so parts should be readily available. Looking in the Rhode Island, Southeastern Massachusetts area as it is 55 pounds and would be Uber expensive to ship. The authorized repair center for Rhode Island is no longer in service. Can anyone give me some leads?

Why put money into a China box?

Can’t debate the quality of it’s DAC because it’s not accessible.

What’s it do that a Rasp Pi with a good DAC don’t?  Besides play music w/o internet?

Especially if you still have one that operates?
