Thx Corndog... I just got mine back, same cost, same issue as yours. Also, same result... It's working better than it was before, & it sounds better. It appears that replacing a few capacitors, and a couple of other things the tech told me has solved the quirky problems that I've been experiencing over the years. No more having to select an input source 2 or more times to get the unit to power on. I've been playing it for the past 8 hours and not once has it cackled or screech such that I have to turn it off & back on to clear it...

Actually, I've fell back in luv with my 1070 again!!!
