Amp Repair in the lower North Island

Post by gcb100 »

Hi guys. I have a DRRI that needs attention - probably just tubes. Who do you recommend between Wellington and Palmerston North? Thanks.

There is a vintage radio place in Masterton with a tech who does repairs, but I've not used them before myself.

I popped in to look for older TVs and spotted a couple of amps and some PA equipment on the workbench. I asked and was told they do most of the repair work for the local Musicworks as a subcontractor.

There's no online presence I can find, but they're on Perry Street opposite the Craft Burger Kitchen.

Internet connectivity hasn't made it that deep into the Wairarapa.
