Meter replacement on Pass Labs X250


Hope this is the right place , for this ?

Has anyone replaced a meter in a Pass Labs X 250 and could tell me the best way to do it? I can get a meter from Pass or I can ship the amp back to them for repair. I would like to drive it to some one in the Phoenix or Sedona AZ. for replacement. Unless someone can tell me that anyone could do it, then I might try myself.

Thanks

I will BET that Pass does MORE than just swap in a new meter.
I'll wager you also get a good checkout.....any bulging caps, for example, would be changed. Any charred resistor, likewise.
You should also get an adjustment....not that bias or any other internal adjustments should have drifted...but I'm sure they are checked and adjusted if needed.
IOW? Paying Pass to do the meter is not only cheap insurance, but a great way to keep your amp running in tip-top shape2...

I Havent' seen the internals, but figure an hour or so assembly / disassembly to change the meter and another hour on the bench for checkout / adjust...as needed.

Good value.
