Looking for a good tech in the Philadelphia, PA area.


Hi all - I recently bought a used Canary tube amp that produces an an unacceptable buzz in both speakers. It was shipped from CA, so not interested in spending all that money on shipping, would rather put that money into a repair. Have searched around, made some calls, but can't find anyone, not to mention anyone qualified. Thanks in advance...I hope.

If you can't find a tech check out Bill Thalmann at Music Technology in VA. Also Ben Jacoby in Brooklyn works on tube gear and is very good.
I feel your pain. I live in Philly and our trusted electronics repair shop has closed. 
Good recommendations by jond. I use Ben Jacoby who I highly recommend, although shipping costs make repairs expensive.

If you find somebody local, I'd like to hear about it.


Jim Nichols is the tech at Barracks Trading Post in Maple Shade, NJ.  He also builds his own tube amps as well and is a disciple of Lance Cochrane and is much closer than the others recommended.
Good to know! Thanks all for the recommendations, much appreciated!
I reached out to Jim just now, I have my fingers crossed:)
