Audiophile Equipment Repair?

Looking for recommendations for a place/person who works on audio equipment. My DAC has a broken (snapped off due to my clumsiness) COAX port on the back that needs replacing. Seems like a fairly simply repair, but I'm not qualified to attempt it. Would appreciate a name and email for someone with the right skills for this.

I am totally on board with plumbing, haven’t had a plumber in my house since I realized I can fix most issues and save $300 each time

(of course I screw up spectacularly first but it’s my own house so what, have to learn somewhere)

Ok. Maybe I should have written:

"I believe that electronics repair is a really useful skill for audiophiles to have".

Yea, I think I'll stick with that.

That's the idea!

In another thread an A'goners might have had a bad outlet in a conditioner.  Im pretty sure we spent more time talking about how to diagnose and fix it than it should have taken to drive to the hardware store,buy and install a replacement.   🤣
