John McDowell Electronics is a fantastic business and a dying breed, specializing in troubleshooting and repairing electronics. It is a couple of rooms filled with floor-to-ceiling gadgetry, wires, tools, and old hi-fi equipment. The technician is a master of all things hi-fi and is very knowledgeable, with decades of experience. He is amazing, truly one of a kind, and a diamond in the rough. He is very diverse in his knowledge of electronics, a true professional, and a great resource for repairing items from vintage receivers and forty-year-old turntables to car control modules and CD changers. It does not matter the age nor the condition of the equipment; he runs diagnostic tests to pinpoint problems and performs high-quality work, often with reasonable prices. He is very friendly, and you know you're in safe hands. He stays busy, so patience is required, but the results are worth it. The business receives the highest recommendation.
