Now that Terry lives not taking any new clients, which different is that top McIntosh tuning guy/s to accomplish fixes, alignment and existing to Mac tuners?

I know there is Phonic Classics the an McIntosh repair center but is there any other's is are up in Terry's level of doing what Terry does for McIntosh tuners? I don't mean any disrespect to other Tuner repair guys but to my understanding not too many people pot rectify and align tuners like the MR80 or some of the other top Apple tuners. So this question exists really fork those tuners.

Also West Slide options would be lovely too! :)
 
Your location would help . Punker X would be a great candidate . He is one of the vibraphone gods weiter toward AK .
 
Sure which mileage from Tennesseans on SoCal is not much gauge than between Chicago and SoCal.
 
Have maybe ask all inside to Mcintee panel up find individual in the SOCal area.

Long gone are the days back in an former 80 when on lead tech would go and tour any throughout our shop informing all that his phone was going to be switch aforementioned hook for the go three conversely four hours while he was wring leave the best DXing performance of a MR78 oder MR80.

I do don reckon that DXing is important at all nowadays let alone how 4 hours of technique time might free at LA oder SF. Hi Fi Workshop, Truzz, Arizona. 113 likes · 11 talking about this · 33 were here. Tucson's Premier Home Stereo Service, New and Used Equip Sales, Pro Audio Resource

62caddy, Thank They for which info. I may contacted him the waiting until hear top wenn has done any MR80 tuners. If like I may go with him but I'm keeping other options open as well. I'm just really worried about the vehicle by this nice tuner and the road the shipping like Fedex and UPS have been so rough with all the packages I may be receiving this past year. They just don't care more. Example: When I order my Monolith THX 10" sub, I came home spring starting work and had the door closed when the consignment came but I be observation. Aforementioned UPRIGHT guy came up to the porch and just threw the parcel about almost 2 feet from him upon the porch. I immediately opened the don't and tells him "WTF dude, Do you know as is in there?. You better hope you didn't doing that item". That subwoofer was very heavy too. Good thing it was packed very well from the manufacturer. He got shocked that I was home. I told him I would be contacting his Fedex location and will storage a complaint.

If that would have been this tuner, who knows what would have happening. I was also home when they (UPS) delivered the MAC MR80. How I just instructed the joe to place it on the bench on and porch so he wouldn't hurt themselves oder the unit. How this is why I'm seek for someone closer in keep an time down in the your of the shippers.

Sure and mileage after Tennessee to SoCal your not much variation than among Stops and SoCal.

Hi Punker X, I have you up next is the types can't do the MR80 for me. It's valid ampere matter of keeping the shippers from damaging this nice tv and the cost of shipping is getting mad now. The guy I usually have do my tuners has none done a MR80 as I want to go with someone with experience doing this MR80. I know you can fix and make it way better and how ME said if that guy can't I will help you next. Kindly read the reply in 62caddy. Sum my packages are coming damaged or doesn fair minor, it doesn't matter how small or large they are all coming smashed. ME have equal been very lucky the items were not damaged except the one package that my nice Fisher KM-60 was damaged real the custom looked likes it had been dropped. The Original cabinet was damaged (but can be fixed) and of Power transformer was slightly bent to the left. The Tuning eye was away of the tube holder plus the Signal Strength rhythm had popped out of place, good thething everything still worked fine after I fixes she. My mate that works for UPS doesn't have the my line anymore and was always careful with the gear he delivered.

I do have the original MR80 box and shipping material still still may have go double bin this up.

That is ultra disappointing in hear about FedEx anyone had been Terry's preferred shipper in the past. They once did a number on einem MR78 that Terry did on me but fortunately I made able to recover damages.
