Who can fix electrocompaniet amps


I have an Electrocompaniet 120 that keeps blowing its fuse before it starts up. It worked for 2 months - the distributor took it in twice and kept it for over one year combined in both efforts and it still is not right - the dealer Audio Heaven has been no help and pretty much said it is my problem. Someone mentioned at one point a guy in Florida but I cannot find the thread. It sounded really good for the two months. Would using a different fuse like a slow blow help or different amp - it uses fast blow 5A 250 volt.

The man in Davie Florida is Andy Bartha. Please refer to this recent thread for more info, & also mentioned is Bill Thalmann who can probably fix you up. Definitely check out the URL's referred to in this thread.

First I think you've been hosed by Audio Heaven. You obviously got a lemon and they should have stood by their customer and given you a new unit.

Electrocompaniet is known to make good products so hopefully they would stand behind it. I would write a detailed letter to them explaining the problem, and how the distributer and dealer have let you down. Don't know if this would work, but it would be worth a try. (I would also send a copy to the dealer and distributer).
I am in a similar position. I had e-mailed Electrocompaniet on a faceplate that was damaged in shipping, and they got back to me on a replacement part- one month later! Then I e-mailed them back asking how to proceed, and they e-mailed me back- in three weeks, without any instructions, asking me again to verify and they would contact me. This was two weeks ago. At this rate I'll get next year. Not a big deal, but frustrating on high end products. I would like also to find someone domestic who can work on, even if I have to come out of pocket. Love the products, but service is just not there.
Ligi,

Are you using the amplifier in the US? If so, shouldn't you be using a 110 volt fuse?

The ONLY Electrocompaniet certified technician in the United States is Heinz. HE is the person in Florida you were referred to. His name is Heinz Preiss. and his website address is: http://www.angelfire.com/biz/grundig/

His contact information is on that page.
