Can a ic be sent back to...

yes, many companies will do this but best check on the price before you commit. there was a thread some time ago that reported on an astronomical price for cutting and retermination. -kelly

Hello Viridian and all...that was my thought exactly...keep a pair and sell a pair! Have to call the company tomorrow and find out how much retermination is and if it will be worth it. Will let you know what happens. Cheers.

Tara wanted $35 to reterm prism 22 cables, fair perhaps, but the local hi-fi hut charged $20 for a decent job...

harmonic technology wants $25 per termination. for the going rate of a used truth link i figure it's prably smarter to get some good RCAs and DIY. which brings the question where to get good connections and silver solder to do the work with.
