HELP!!! Parts needed for Tube Audio Design TAD-150

HELP! I have one of these pre-amps and it has died on me. I am in need of parts to hope a repair is possible! Unfortunately the company is no longer in business and I am turning here for hope that someone may have one that no longer works as well.

Any direction or input from others would be most helpful. Thanks and happy listening!
