I’d like to service/upgrade this unit in order to make better recordings since I got no space for a real hi-fi. Any tips about capable technicians in Europe or in Italy? I talked with Dr.Walkman but at the moment he’s not accepting new commissions ‘cause he has too much work.
Superscope (who took over this model from Marantz) in USA is still servicing this unit. They do not upgrade this in any way rather they will still service it and in case it needs parts I believe they have old stock - they also sell on ebay. https://www.superscopetechnologies.com/ Unfortunately they are not exactly cheap and shipping it back and forth from Italy to the US would really break the bank. However if you need spares I suppose they might consider shipping them to you. I have exactly the same unit PMD-430 in a brand new boxed condition. Its a fantastic machine in my opinion.
Thanks! Unfortunately sending it to the U.S. it’s too expensive, so I’m looking for a good technician here in Europe. I wrote to all the tech services mentioned in the sticky thread but I’m yet to receive an answer.
