OldiesButGoodies:
My experience with Vince at Galaxie has been positive so far, others may have different history with him. He does not have the levels of experience/knowledge that Tom/Anders have for Carver equipment, but if it's a simple issue he can be a great resource. And he is relatively quick. Good luck with that repair.

I was going to take a denon pma-757 to Vince that was blowing fuses, he recommended me to take it to atlas because he didn't know what was up with it. Needless to say i will be fixing it myself, so I pretty much have no use for Vince.
OldiesButGoodies:
I have used Vince approximately 20 or so times for troubleshooting logic circuit issues in tape decks that usually ended up involving a bad integrated circuit chip or the right voltage not getting to the chip because of an upstream component gone bad. So my experience in that domain (tape decks) has been good, usually takes him two weeks to complete work. I have never used him to troubleshoot an amplifier issue, mostly because I take that type of work to Tom. I have noticed he redirects work to Atlas when his workload is high - I have never used Atlas because os his reputation. But Vince has been good to me and stands by his work.

ST-Rider:
His first suggestion was that Carver amps will go into protection mode if there are any issues with speaker wires touching each other, etc. more so than most amps/receivers so he said that could likely be the issue. He said he'd take a look at it anyway and see if he finds anything else.
Dicky:
He kind of pissed me off because I told him all about it on the phone and he said bring it down, and when I got there said he couldn't before I even set it down. He could have saved me the trip.
