User Error Disaster


Howdy, and thanks for any advice. A combination of fatigue and laziness resulted in me blowing the right-side channel in my beloved 1993 B&K Sonata 202+ amplifier a couple of days ago. It's just the right stage, everything else works fine, and I've checked all the fuses and they are okay. My real problem seems to be locating a company that can repair it. I live in Dallas, TX, btw. I'd prefer to repair it since it's paired with a matching 93 Sonota Pro-10 MC pre-amp but if I just can't find anyone to repair it, could I get some advice on a comparable amp to replace it? Vintage or more modern works, I guess, but that's the route I'll have to go if I cannot find a shop or company that can do the repair. Thanks for any advice, it's much appreciated.

You blew up your amp?  I think you did yourself a favor.  It's time to upgrade dude - hah!  You wouldn't wear shirts that old would you?  As for what to get, NAD, Schiit, PS Audio, Anthem, and a whole host of goodies are out there.  How about a DIY Nelson Pass Amp, the First Watt stuff, that'd is some cool stuff right there.  
Sugden A21SE will bring you into this century, best by miles your current setup (I’ve owned this vintage of BK) and leave behind any upcoming repair issues.  Things simply wear out with nearly 30 years of use.  Be happy for some much enjoyment from BK.

If that does not fit your pocketbook, its smaller brother is quite good.  Or, even a Rega integrated.  Best of luck.
Sorry, just noted your (expanded) response and see the $500-700 price range.  Rega integrated used will still get you there.  Yes, I would still leave the Sonata behind unless you must have the MC preamp section I seem to remember.
Hello,
I appreciate you wanting to fix this Component instead of dumping it. There is a repair shop in Woodridge, IL called Deltronics. They are very good at what they do. https://www.deltronics.com/
They tripled the store in Woodridge and closed the Chicago location to get it all in one location. They have been doing business since 1984. I hope this helps. 
I'll second the sugden a21se, fantastic integrated for the money. Once you hear pure class A its hard to go back. Paired with some tannoys is blissful.
