Factory service for products from the 90's

I am thinking you can get better amps and preamps now for less than the repair + shipping costs. 

Even for "top of the line"  Mark Levinson, LAMM, ARC and Spectral amps and pre's? What do you feel repairs will cost. What are hourly rates?

Nobody wants to stock and pay tax on repair inventory that might sit on the shelf for years. The 90s were 30 years ago, it's not very feasible or business smart to provide repair service for items that old. That is really asking for a lot, 10 years would be exceptional in today's market.  

Interesting. Some of these Top Line products were advertised as a lifetime product. I find the 90's seem like yesterday :)

Wasn't "factory service" but I have had no problem getting servicing or repairs done on my McIntosh gear.  There are several very reputable individuals available.  The McIntosh amp and preamps I own are from the 1980's and early 1990's.
