Should I repair or replace Lexicon DC-1?


My Lexicon DC-1 has developed a loud buzz on only the front main speakers. I've swapped some cables around and even replaced the unit with my old Denon PRE1000 (2 channel) so now I'm wondering if I should repair or replace the unit. I see they're around $400-$600 used and Lexicon wants me to ship it to them so they can repair it @ $425 flat fee. Is it worth it or should I just start shopping for a replacement? If I replace it, I might be willing to spend close to $3,000 (new or used) but would prefer less.
Another option is to have it repaired elsewhere (local to Buffalo, NY) but how do I find someone to do that?
I am more interested in good 2 channel music but like to have the 5.1 channel surround for movies. I am not really interested in using a reciever. Thanks.

Its old and with the newer procssing available I wouldn't put any money into it.
Just my 2 cents worth....
