Nad c-370: Right Channel drops out


I took my NAD to a local repair shop to investigate why the right channel goes out on my amp and they proposed to charge me $420 to install a main amp kit, a filter set plus labor. Needless to say, I paid them their $70 "diagnostic fee" and brought the Nad home, unrepaired.

I am a bit baffled because I can get the right channel to come on if I tinker around with the amp by switching source inputs form CD to Video and so on. I have been reading on the internet about problems with these amps due to capacitors overheating and bugging out. Is there a particular capacitors or group of capacitors that I could replace myslef and get my rig running again?

I know there is sometimes special knowledge involved, but really. Once a tech has the schematic and test values what could possibly go wrong?
Well that truly made me lol. Magfan, I'm guessing you aren't a technician.
Magfan, your second paragraph had me chuckling again. I'm not arguing the logic you put forth, it is a rosy picture though.
Agree 100% with your closing sentence. I have known a few truly gifted techs.
