I am working with Paul to help troubleshoot my Beepre (1) that has lost the left channel.   He has been really helpful but it dawned on me that if I could get a replacement board or 2, I could easily just rebuild.    Is that something that is available?   Of course I, do not expect it for free.  I will continue with Paul but thought I would ask.   Is this an option, or should I just depopulate the boards?

If you need a C4S board, those are still in production and could be obtained by contacting replacementparts(at)bottlehead(dot)com.

The power supply boards above the transformers are discontinued but I have the leftovers here.  For the problem you're experiencing, I would not anticipate you needing to replace the power supply boards.

Thank you Paul.   I have the board and parts to fill it on order.   Interesting to note when I removed the original board today there was an obvious burn mark that I missed on the smaller (lower powered) transistors.   I touched it and it essentially fell apart.  At least I can confirm 1 bad part.   Since all 4 leds no longer light up, I suspect the other side failed the same way.   I will have the parts some time next week and baring any other issues will be back up and running.
