I posted earlier about noises my sub (HSU VTF-2) was making. I called HSU and they said I had a bad amp. They are estimating repairs will be $120 including shipping.

I'm trying to decide which of these three things makes the most sense to do. Keep in mind, they claim resale for used ones is about $300 according to them.

1. Send it back to them and get it fixed. It will be about 3 weeks before I get it back.

2. See if I can find somewhere local to repair it. I'm not sure if this is feasible, who is familiar enough and has parts for the sub to repair it, and what this would cost.

3. Scrap it and buy a new sub.

Any suggestions, either for one of these options or something else I'm not thinking of?
