      Good News !!

      I took it in to Bobby at Thames Audio Video in Twickenham and it is fixed at a cost less than the B&O quote for a service !! All the input buttons now work as do the stereo and on/off lights. Very pretty at night with the room lights off !!

      I am a very happy chappy !!

      If anyone reads this and is in the Twickenham vicinity I can heartily recommend Bobby.

      Thanks for all your help and encouragement !

      Ernesto

        Thanks for that. I live in Feltham, near Heathrow Airport. I found an electrical repair chappy (Bobby Chohan) who has good feedback on line. I emailed him a pdf of the Service Manual and am taking it in for him to have a look on Monday.

        Thanks

          Thanks ever so for the advice !! I don’t really think I could ever take it to the tip. I will try and find a local electronics chappy to take it to along with the service manual. A while back I went into a local B&O showroom, before the right channel issue, to see abou the other minor issues being fiixed and was advised they could pass it on to their service department but they wouldn’t attempt to repair anything unless they gave it a service first which, if memory serves, would cost over £300 with no guarantee of a fix. I will let you know how I get on.

          Thanks again

          Ernesto
