other resources
ettrick audio visual – Grant Ettrick is a master with repairing audio equipment and vintage electronic doodads. Did a much better job of repairing our broken Fairlight CVI than the company who charged us three times as much. He really knows his stuff, and has an awesome collection of vintage audio equipment of his own.
