    Repair question - 804 Matrix near St Louis MO

    Finally got around to hooking up my rear (804 Matrix) and surrounds (805 Matrix) - 2 months after purchase (yes, eBay - no FLAMING please).
    Now I'm beating myself up for not having checked the 804s when I got them - one of them barely makes any noise at all.
    I'm pretty resolved to try to get the one speaker repaired - any suggestions in the St. Louis, MO area?

    BTW: The 805s (also eBay) were NIB and sound perfect!

      Hello, sorry to hear about your troubles. What part of St Louis are you in? There are a couple in that genereal area, there is Best Sound over at 227N Lindburg, and The Sound Room in Creve Coeur. There is another audio shop in Frontenac just on the north side of the Frontenac Mall across the street, Its name escapes me right now. Any of these shops should be able to help you.

      Good Luck!

      Here is the ph# of The sound Room Tel: (314) 997-3456

          Thanks

          It's been a while since I did the rounds of the high-end stores in STL.
          Does anyone know who does the best work?

              What type of work did you want done? HT? The shop over in Frontenac that I mentioned in the last post is called The Screening Room. They have a really nice shop and do great work. Being in Frontenac you can imagine the type of jobs they work on. Very nice stuff.

                  Speaker repair

                  First things first.
                  I need to repair the bad 804 if possible
                  Who would you suggest?

                  In the future I need a screen for the HT and perhaps someone to program my Halo C2 - no super-design at this point: I just want to enjoy what I have for now. In the future I can make the theatre "perfect".

                      The Sound room in Creve Coeur is a B&W dealer, so they will be able to fix your 804's.

                          I bought 95% of my equipment (B&W speakers and e.t.c) from BestSound and i would say that they have better customer service and more professional in speakers or Amps repairing. The sales manager from Bestsound is very friendly and will be able to help you out.
