Sounds like a blown input to me As in DC input transistors.
Wanna sell it?

Most shops run $100 or more. I moonlight fixing amps. What Part of LA? I usually can fix then for less then $75, but it depends on how much damage is done.

If you have some soldering skills fix it yourself. Amps are simple and parts shouldn't run more then $20 if that.
Take it apart and post some pics.
