AVR 525 turned up only one shop willing to look at my dying centerpiece to my home theater, and it was not a very good diagnosis. I am looking at $40 just to have the privilege of dropping it off to the shop for a diagnosis.After describing the problem to the shop it was clear to me after hearing the response that there are many things that could be wrong with the receiver. Could be a mechanical volume control problem, could be in the digital circuit, could be a processor or logic board problem. I was just imagining having to pay for diagnosis in each of those areas at $80/hr and still not having the receiver working right. Not to mention the parts that would have to be special ordered, estimated at $100. No, I think I will have to retire my old friend and get a new receiver. May he rest in peace, we have been through many movies and many hours of music together.
