Repair a Rel Britannia B-3?

I have a Rel Britannia B-3 that recently died, no blue LED light, no power. A repair guy here in Houston says he can't find parts or a replacement board for it. I tried calling Sumiko in California and received no help. It was $2200 new and sounds great with my Thiel 1.6s, so I hate to scrap it. My dealer is back in Cincinnati, and doesn't do repairs.

Any advice would be most welcome.

Hello Jerry:

I have the same model with the same problem. My local dealer (Bellingham, WA) sent the amp board to Rel in California and after considerable time the response is that the the board traces are bad with no reliable repair. No replacement boards are available. Were your efforts to contact Rel in UK productive?
Thanks for you anticipated response.

Regards, Mike

Rel has a U.S. service location in Berkley California. Dave, is the man to talk too. I was able to purchase a New 10" driver for my REL B2 and it is awesome! Only took about a week to get too.
