Nikko Alpha VI Amp
« on: January 13, 2012, 07:57:39 AM »
This beautiful Nikko Alpha VI needs repaired. It was working perfectly, powers up,  but has went into protection. There are no techs up here(Erie area) and do not want to ship to have repaired. The 2 way shipping would be expensive as this weighs ALOT. I did talk to a well known tech out of state and he suggested new caps might be in order and could be all that is wrong. I am not a repair guy, so maybe you folks in Pittsburgh know a tech down there. It is in great condition cosmetically and I have the original box. 300 wpc, all mosfet dual mono design. I recently picked up some Polks, so I can't use it anyways since it is a non-common ground amp. When these rarely do show up for sale, they fetch over $1k and thats without the box. I will sell for $550, the way it sits. The white spot showing on the side is just from the camera flash. Might be an easy and cheap fix, but I am not going to deal with it right now. If you are a tinkerer, then this is a great amp to own...........or flip.

Tom and Anders at Vintage Hifi Pgh are the ones to talk to if you want to get it fixed.

It's probably not the caps.

Definitely get at Tom or Anders. That thing is worth keeping.

What about the HIFI hospital on Buffalo Rd in Harborcreek?
I am confident that an SL-1200 is capable of outperforming turntables of much higher expense with minor modification.

I can ship it to you, no problem. As mentioned, I have the original box/packing and would ship the original box inside of another box.

If you have no faith in safe shipping, I am willing to hook up at the Grove City exit or mall. That is an 85 mile trip(1-way) for me.

I understand. I do know it is not the outputs, which is a good thing. Please let me asap, as as much as I hate to list it on ebay.
