Usually not worth it I have found. Used to be a place in South Tampa but I don't even think they are around anymore and they were prohibitively expensive! If you find someone, post and let us know. Good info for everyone...

I can do board soldering down to 3mm at work. I might be able to do it for you, what do you need soldered?

thats the problem i opened it up to find the problem and cant see it. ok heres the deal, the rca inputs are loose, like the connection on the board is loose. when i hook up my rca's and turn the radio on i have hold them either up or to the side for them to work, but when it works its a bad ass amp with plenty of power and rarely gets hot. i dont want to get rid of it, i have a peice of folded up paper wedged inbetween the rcas to hold them apart but thats ghetto and i want to fix it

Just use the piggyback from an RCA rable and solder it in. It's a 5 minute repair. Here are pics.

OR you could buy the correct jack from radio shack(its an identical replacement) but this would usually mean removing the board and that means pulling the heat sinks off the fets and reseating those is VERY difficult and usually they wont conduct heat as well as they do stock.

If you want me to do it for you let me know where I can meet you and ill pick it up and solder it in.
