Classic Service - Q & A for classic cherished units

The love of our older units has led us to continuing our renovation procedures for our Classic units  ( classic means over 25 years old)  Keeping them musically and functionally perfect WITH THE RIGHT NEW PARTS

We only use new parts, parts that sound perfect and are the parts we used originally , Crucially keeping all amps 100% genuine ONIX AMPS made by us  . The parts fit right, work right , sound right and ARE RIGHT .

They are not " near enough " as is almost without exception the parts we see in units we get back repaired by " Audio Repair Guys " in particular those posting on Facebook.. They do not know how we made our units sound so good NONE of them know . 

Please read below

We often see units badly repaired by people that don't know what they are doing , having to rectify their screw ups before we start. We are sure no repair person knows how our amps work ( Because we never told anyone )  or what we did to make them sound so good  . Its unbelievable how bad some OA21 units have been repaired, often with components that are 100% wrong , wrong value,  wrong size , or just often by being glued in as they dont fit . Repairers spray contact cleaner on switches,  this ruins the switch.

We NEVER do this, and guarantee  our renovations for 2 years .

( switches are often plastic and cleaner destroys the plastic after a few months )  . 

Older switches cannot be replaced , so we take them apart to renovate them . We DO NOT spray contact cleaner on them EVER

If contact cleaner is sprayed on a switch it will destroy the switch later, and most switches on our older units are no longer made .

Our parts  are the RIGHT PARTS, We are the ONLY company that does these renovations.

We do this job the way it should be done, with new parts if required, they come back to you like new.  

All renovations are tested and "listened" too before becoming an ONIX Approved renovations , giving your amp 30 years again.

Also we guarantee them for 2 years

COMPONENTS ARE NEVER CREATED EQUAL , neither are real engineers , cheap is always cheap, no one works for nothing.

The spec sheet cant listen,  but for your love of music and our older units we hope you listen and care to continue to listen .

 

Parts are cheap for a reason - See above

 

All renovation has to be booked in as our CEO only does them twice a year

Our circuit designs are proprietary  ( ONIX OA21 have OA21 circuits  but we never distribute them ) .

We have yet to find ONE " repair person "  that has repaired our units with the right parts or in the right way .

Amplifiers are not cars , or old TVs, they are years of R & D , Keep them that way .
