Well, in my experience modern electronics are so complex and 'integrated' inside it is virtually impossible to make all but the simplest of repairs. Gone are the days where you could diagnose a circuit, replace a capacitor here, a resistor there, and get results. At best they'd charge you for replacing major boards or other units inside. We had to give up on an oven because the 'brains' were a $400 circuit board to replace.

But you might have hit on a good idea - is there anything coming out of the preamp outputs? That's what you'd connect an amp to, and if the amp was the part that went bad you might get your wish! Do you have another receiver or amp that you can test that out on?
