45 Years Experience
Specializing in open Reel to Reel tape decks. Ampex, MCI, Studer, Revox , Sony, Otari, Fostex, Tascam, Teac, Sansui, AKAI, Roberts, Crown and Pioneer. I also work on older stereo equipment from the 60's through the early 80's including Pioneer, Kenwood, Sherwood, Sansui, Carver, Phase Linear, Marantz and many more. One note about the stereo equipment repair. The older equipment is either tube or discrete transistor designs.
I do NOT work on any of the newer (mid 80's and newer) integrated circuit models. No exceptions. Most of the newer chain store stereo equipment is very cheaply made and not fixable. I also DO NOT work on any wooden console stereo's .
All equipment has to be brought to me. I do not except shipments of equipment for reasons of tax law, and damage to equipment. All eqipment shipped to me will be refused. No exceptions. Shop hours Monday and Wednesday 9am - 5pm (Closed Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and weekends) Equipment drop off and pickup is by appointment only...... so please send me an Email. I no longer do onsight service calls to the cities of Minneapolis or St Paul. This is a permenant business decision.
Newer location - Please ask for the new address south of the Twin Cities. Cash, Pay Pal and Venmo shop. No credit cards or personal checks excepted. Equipment drop off and pickup is by appointment only...... so please send me an Email.

All equipemnt left for more then 6 months after date of finishing the repairs will be sold to recover costs of the repair. Equipment left at shop longer then 3 months, that is not repaired because of a refused estimate, or was unrepairable, will be desposed of......or parted out.

This shop is now a part time adventure. I'm only open to customers 2 days a week. Mondays and Wednesdays 9am - 5pm. I hope we can we work out a good time for you to stop by with your gear.
I know, this has to be the worst website ever put up. Google seems to think so, and they rule the world (I guess). But to tell you the truth, I don't really care. So stop over for a beer and a chat. The new shop is located on a beautiful property. It's heaven. Peace my friend.

Just a heads up. This will be my last year as a business. After 45 years doing repairs and installs all over the upper midwest... I'm tired. And want to move on. December 31st 2026 the business will close. I will still do repairs as a hobby. But I will choose what I will work on. With that said, the shop will stop taking in repairs on November 1st of 2026 so I can finish up everything that is already here. All equipment left in the shop after the closing date will be sold off. Sorry......
