Vintage hifi repairs

[snowandrocks]

Following on from the other thread. I have a setup centred around a 1970's Yamaha CA-610 with matching tuner.

It worked perfectly until sometime last year when it started blowing the fuse if switched on.

Any recommendations for someone to fix it and possibly give it a bit of a service if that's a thing? I'm in Aberdeenshire so I suspect it's going to have to be posted.

It's obviously not worth a fortune but it does have sentimental value and sounds surprisingly nice.

If you're in Aberdeenshire Robert Ritchie in Montrose might be worth a call:

Nice clean working ones are 400-500 on eBay so worth getting serviced / fixed I would say.

A nice looking thing.

Sorry - was in a rush when I wrote that earlier. Robert Ritchie is a really good set-up with a workshop (largely for turntables, which he used for repairing my LP12) and I'm fairly sure he'll turn his hand to most stuff. It's pretty high-end but there's also a good grounding of more normal stuff, which made me feel a bit better!
