Some places to try are Hawthorne (Seattle), Gig Harbor Audio, and Desco (Olympia). I took one of my tuners in to Desco and they were willing to work on it. Unfortunately they couldn't find the part needed to repair it. I've had them work on a number of other things including some vintage turntables and they've always done good work. I haven't had Gig Harbor do any work for me but have heard good things about their service and also Hawthorne. The guys at Echo Audio in Portland are great also.
Tuner calibration North West coast.
I have a Sansui TU 717 that is in need of tuner calibration etc, ( tuning section ) work. I have had the audio section updated and moded already, ( moded to the tuner information center recommendations list) but my tech doesn't have the right equipment nor experience setting up the tuner section. It is in working condition and I listen to it daily. but its starting to drift and some stations are becoming narrower to tune also the tuning cord-thread is starting to slip. still sounds wonderful so hopping a proper tuner section set up, calibration and repair as needed will extend its life another 20 years.
I have already moved the tuning cord tensioner to the tighter hole (if you know what I'm talking about your hired, lol).
Oh if they can install LED lighting too that would be great as I can not seem to find a reliable led kit supplier here. reliable as in they actually respond to my purchases request.
I live in Victoria BC Canada so I could bring it to anywhere in the Vancouver island, Vancouver proper, Seattle areas or I can ship.
I'm looking for an experienced tuner tech, I know far and few between nowadays .
