Have you spoken to Amp-guru about the issue? I have purchased several items from him and personally know many other who have and have never seen such an issue and was always delivered within 3 days, that's crazy fast from Germany to the US. I did have buddy buy a Helix amp he advertised as new but when it arrived it had a few blemishes. He was very understanding and quick to rectify the situation. I would speak with him before any work is done unless you are determined to keep that particular amplifier.

Orca in Cali is the only authorized mosconi repair facility in North America apparently. Might try giving them a ring but not sure they would repair something they didn't sell. I know they were of no use to me but that's because I'm in Canada. Worth a shot tho. I would definitely contact Amp guru first tho as he's supposed to be a great seller I've heard - even been contemplating grabbing one from him as well (actually might even be the one you have currently lol)

yes i have , he just kinda blew me off saying its probably a short on one of my speakers or something , there is no issue with my install . the amp goes into protection mode with no speakers attached to it . also i took over 3 weeks to get to me and when i received it it had a loose mosfet clip and 2 wood screws inside the case rattling around . i removed the parts inside before powering it up .
i have a as 200.4 hooked up in its place with no issues , and tested my old genisis amp as well no issues . SOOOOO i think its the amp! for sure at this point just sucks that he wont back up his product .

I agree it definitely sounds like an issue on his end. Very sorry to hear this about him, as for someone to take a look at it I would recommend @EricsAmplifiers based on many positive reviews on fb.

You might reach out to Jeff Priddy to see if he's willing to take a look at them. I've had good experience working with him.

 

[james2266]

Oh wow. This response you got likely prevents me from trying to get anything from him. Very disappointing.

The Amp Lab ?

yeah its a real bummer , i also asked if i could send it back for testing , or if he had anyone in the states that could look at it , no response .

I've responded to your private message. Im in the US and I am taking new repairs/customers. Thank you for reaching out to me!

after a few day he reached out to me about a resolution , im glad about that , im sending it to eric for an evaluation

 

[james2266]

That's great to hear. I was surprised earlier as this seller has been recommended by quite a few off here. I also have a mosconi that needs help and was going to send to Eric as well (might still) but after the quote I got from UPS yesterday it might not be worth sending. I know Canada Post/USPS is cheaper but I don't currently have a way to box it for shipping to my liking.

updates ! eric received the amp and was able to repair it and get it back to me super fast ! ,, I highly recommend Eric for repair work . great communication , and a super nice guy
i have sent the repair invoice to the amp guru at his request , ill report back for his efforts to resolve this issue . Ian

 

[james2266]

Thanks for the update. Great he could repair it quickly for ya. I'm hoping to get mine to him for same if I can find a way to get it to him without killing me on shipping (in in Canada). What was wrong with it anyway?

 

[chasingSQ]

there was a mosfet clip that broke causing a short . and a couple switches in the board that were stuck .

 

[james2266]

Great it was a straight forward fix. Think mine gonna need a fair amount more

 

[chasingSQ]

UPDATE . the amp is on the way back from repair, and the amp-guru . paid the invoice for repair . its nice that even from overseas, people have integrity and do the right thing ,rare but in this case ill take it .
