Who services older equipment?


I have some 70s era Marantz components I would like to have serviced. I purchased new the following: Model 140 power amp, 3200 preamp, and 112 tuner. The tuner looks great but needs adjustments. The preamp has one channel not working.
The amp works great and is used in my bedroom system. They all look very nice and have nostalgic value, so I would be willing to spend a reasonable amount to fix. Any help in servicing this gear would be most appreciative. Alas, these are all ss, not tubes!

An addition to my original post: I live in Tallahassee, Fl.
The tuner (Marantz model 112) works good. I recently replaced the panel backlighting using four fuse type lamps. There are four indicator lamps for various switches. Two do not work, and I could not locate this type of lamp. Also, although the tuner sounds fine, the frequency indicator is off slightly. I would probably spend $100 to fix it. Like I said in my previous post, it has nostalgic value and looks much cooler than any of the digital tuners out there.

The Marantz model 3200 preamp looks great, also. But it might not be worth fixing. The right channel is nearly dead. So it might require substancial parts replacement. But again, I would be willing to spend $100 to get it working.

Thanks for all the previous responses.
