I have (2) Sonics branded Brystons 3B's I purchased from an audio contractor used in the OmniMax Theaters as discussed in an older post. They are dated a 'vintage' 1989 and need to be repaired/restored. In the pro-audio world, the earlier Brystons are preferred choice and not the SST line. I currently drive both Tannoy NF8's and Yamaha NS10's. Looking to replace the NF8's with a pair of 15" Tannoy SGM's.
I contacted Bryston and they declined to do any work on them. On eBay, amplifier_surgery offeres a full restoration of 3/4B's for $600. Is it worth spending any money at all being they are close to 30 years old?
Many thanks for any advice!
Best Regards,
