That explains why you don't value your technician or their knowledge. Trust me, a proper amplifier repair is far more involved. I deal with computers on a daily basis but don't repair TV's (thank goodness).

You will find that that model of doing business may work for you, but it doesn't for audio service, insterment service or telephone service. The average "okay" test bench for audio may easily have $10K in equipment on it and more. Never mind parts stock and training.

Big difference between a electronics tech and the computer tech.
Ones a four year tech course the others an expect because he can unplug a power supply and change it...

Unfortunately the term "Technician" means very little these days.

Hi awpagan,

Agreed, any good technician has my respect.

Yup. everyone wants to be something these days. Whether or not they really are capable.
