How much $$$ is such a repair likely to run? I know you don't know what's EXACTLY wrong, but what's a fix worth VS good, working amp value on open market? Amp would appear to have both a following AND several good uses. Maybe a Sub Amp? I'd envision a very large, Open Baffle design with 4 large woofers in at least the 12" class.

Even for a 1000 for a single amp its way cheaper than anything else listed on the forum.

That makes me think on the long term realibility of emo amps, hopefully is isolated but I guess only emo knows their failure rate

That makes me think on the long term realibility of emo amps, hopefully is isolated but I guess only emo knows their failure rate Upon Further Thought: Gene MUST know several techs competent to fix the amp. Few, if any, absolutely proprietary parts ease availability. Such techs could work without schematic until time to 'adjust' the bias and maybe a few other knobs. OH! and I see this is a PAIR. Next question would be what is Gene's NEXT move, amp wise? New EMO? Go full-tilt on some Pass Labs? Get a new hobby? And I see Gene is in Florida, which for ME is yet another red flag. Been there, done that and won't ever go back. Amp might have even suffered from power glitches due to horrible Florida Flicker And Flash (FP&L) service during extensive lightning storm season.

Seems like he would have plenty of connections and resources to get the issue resolved without much hassle.

He is redoing his system to do Atmos and needs to go multichannel in the same space the XPRs took. I'm sure he got them at a good price so since one isn't working, now is the time to unload them.
