M-500T light burn out
Do you know who can replace the lightbulb and how much ?
Re: M-500T light burn out
Rita at Bob Carver's Audio Service here in Snohomish should be able to fix it. I believe the minimum fee is $120 but that includes bench testing, inspection and re-calibration.

Keep in mind that amp is 30 years old, if it hasn't been re-calibrated or serviced you can cause major damage, just sayin'
