Spectron Audio Out Of Business?

celander
Thank you
I will be shipping to Deltronics as soon as my amp is returned from the tek shop I sent to. 
The shop told me that one of my power modules is blown and since this is a Spectron custom built it is very difficult to obtain the correct parts for repairs.This is what I am afraid of. I have 3 amps and for the past 10 years I must returned modules to Mr Manh over 10 times for repairs.

A bit of the topic, what amps are you considering replacing your Spectrons ?
I really love the music out of the Spectrons and really enjoyed for the past 10 years.
I came from Pass Labs X350.5s and X600.5s and since then never audition any other amps.
Merrill Audio and Nord is on my list so far, but, never seen or heard them.
If you have manged to find amps close to Spectrons please post.

terryakhan,

Any progress with your Spectron?

No sir. Wish someone associated with business or the former ownership would take some care or interest in these excellent creations.

Hello,
Three shops that I have sent one of my Spectrons to are unable to carry out repairs on the power modules.
It is now believed that the large black custom IC is defected.
There is no info printed on this component and none of the techs knows what it is, apart from hand written sharpie numbers  470 and 465kc / Nat 33c and 464kc, these must be Spectrons coding.
A fellow tech at work replaced all 3 Wima caps and the 2 power mos fets and still no go, he also thinks that the unknown black IC is at fault.
I am really hoping that we get lucky and some ex-Spectron tech find this forum who may be able to help us.
I wonder what has become Spectron's inventory of spare parts, tools, testing equipment etc?
Both of Mr Manh's numbers are disconnected and emails bounce back.
The amps were assembled in CA so there must be several ex-employees around.
