Should I repair Hegel H30 amp which has low level buzz in one channel


I seek your advice.  I have had some bad luck with amps.  I have a Krell FB 300 CX that sits in my back bedroom which overheated and I don't believe in Krell's ability to repair it for anything resembling long term.  So I bought this Hegel H30 used and it was portrayed to me as lightly used.  The first delivery it arrived from Pyramid Audio in texas DOA.  Back it went and I waited months to get it back.  It lasted about 9 months before the fuse blew (i don't know why).  Pyramid Audio sent it back in their usual incompetent way by banding it in only one direction on the pallet and it wasn't even secured tightly.  When I turned it on, lights were on in the interior but there was no sound.  Pyramid called it a lemon and I call them incompetent and rude.  They said it couldn't take shipping and I pointed out that the shipping issues came from them.  I couldn't find anyone in Wisconsin that i felt had the expertise to repair so I paid a guy to drive it to Illinois...5 hour round trip.  The issue was that the power transformer had dislodged in the interior, taking some wires with it.  
I discovered one night that there is a low level buzz coming from the right channel and I confirmed it's the amp.   When you turn the system on you have to be about 6 inches or less from the midrange/tweeter (Thiel CS6) to hear it.  By the time 8 hours have gone by you might hear it at about a foot but no further.   You can't hear it when music isn't playing and you are a couple of feet from speaker.   I thought it would get worse...it hasn't.  I sense no impact on the music, no buzz but it irritates me to think it's there.  However, it would entail probably two five hour drives to get it "fixed."   I know that finding the source of a buzz can be hard for a tech.  Owner of repair shop was nice (Deltronics) and agreed to look at it again.  My question to all you experts:  would you live with the buzz seeing as it's inaudible from listening position and seems to have no effect on any aspect of the sound reproduction or would you take months again without the amp and a long drive twice to try to get buzz fixed?   Thanks for your thoughts in advance.

I'm old too and I understand.  Ultimately of course it's up to you and how much it bugs you.  Sometimes I think that the transformer hum, although it is very low in level, does affect what I'm hearing, maybe in soundstaging but overall everything sounds so good to me that I can be happy with the way things are.

Boy, no love for the Hegel.  Bryston, in my opinion would not compete with the Hegel.  I don’t know the one you mentioned but I heard previous ones and it didn’t compete with the Hegel.  The George Meyer suggestion for the Krell seems to me to not be advisable.  I have read a number of comments on here to not send Meyer products of considerable complexity, which is the Krell.  The overheating problem with the Krell is daunting and their head guy, who specializes in FPB’s has failed.  The repair place in Illinois which handled the Hegel is willing to look at it again..it’s just a question of the time and effort for me to take it there and then pick-up.  The Hegel was a 15,000 dollar amp.  The Brystion was about 6700 when the Hegel was manufactured in 2021.  I do believe there is some connection between price and audio quality.

Just my opinion; If a piece of equipment does not provide more than 4 years of trouble-free service, it should be abandoned. One problem usually leads to another. I would personally not repurchase anything from that manufacture again! So much more to choose from.
