Time to fix my Definitive Technology Speaker...

This is jam packed video with lots of up, downs, and curve balls. It's been months in the making. I go through what happened to my Definitive Technology speaker, as I take you on an odyssey of epic proportions to fix the amp in my 8080ST tower. I went through Definitive Technology and their "legacy amplifier repair" program, which costs $300. I go through everything you need to do to get your speaker's amp repaired.
