introducing a new oldtimer audiophile

Hello all, I'm pleased to join in and offer what I can from the perspective of a high-end audiophile (from the 60s on), music lover, and concert goer (mostly classical and early music). I worked in high end audio in the late 60s, when Marantz tube gear and KLH9s represented the state of the art (some say still do), went on to careers in teaching, public service, and automobile stuff while starting a high-end audio import business in the '80s (van den Hul, FM Acoustics, some other esoteric stuff). Just a music-loving hobbyist these days who tries to help friends with less experience (new to digital, etc.) and occasional problems with their gear. I have two pairs of KLH9s which still sound great after all these years, and a couple of OTL tube amps that I need to fix and may have questions about for this forum. Meantime, I have a friend whose Parasound A21 has gone silent and is looking for someone in Colorado (between Boulder and Denver) to fix it. Parasound has been unresponsive and their former tech, Tony Pointes, seems to have retired. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks!
