Bay area, of course.
The CJ MF-200 sounds sick.
I know it got dropped hard enough in shipping to bend the rack handles and faceplate in the factory packaging.
Bill Thalman of music technology did the mods to tha amp and can talk a tech through troubleshooting.
I hope I can get this squared away before the 24th, or we'll need to come up with a plan "B".
The low frequency has gotten very loose and boomy, I hooked my olive directly to the amp, bypassing my pre and it sounds like how the pre sounds when a rectifier tube is going bad, very diffuse, loose and boomy.
TIA, Bill

A pre isn't going to help, will need a stout amplifier capable of driving the 4ohm maggies. :cry:

Music Lovers in Berkely and SF carries the brand.

According to the chair guy World Of Sound in Marin will fix anything.

I took it to the closest shop which is L&M electronics.
Woodsyi has come to my rescue and has promised to send his innersound amps for the rave.
Keeping my fingers crossed...
