Turns out, it was not missing. They just never said anything. Worse, they didn't even say why or take any accountability. That was the most maddening part. I do not recommend this place.

Kevin is very experienced and professional with repairing audio equipment and other electronics. He…read moreis a great person to talk to, very knowledgeable, great customer service, keeps you updated on projects, and overall top of the line service. Your item will be in great hands with him. Good prices in regard to the labor itself and the parts that may need to be ordered. Don't expect a 1 day turnaround. Repairs take time and other projects are also queuing to be done. Cash and check only. Wednesday's are typically his availability if needing to pick up or drop off items. Will be a repeating customer.

He met us halfway between our home & his, swapped in 12 V-Cap ODAMs, and got both pieces back to us in two weeks. The work is flawless and his price was very fair too. I spoke with Gordon Rankin (owner of Wavelength Audio) and Scott Bierfeldt (importer of Art Audio gear) and both remarked that Kevin was known as one of the top ten audio repairmen in the States. This guy is great. Highly recommend.

Handed them a difficult diagnosis and even more difficult issue to fix. They fixed a complex classical guitar pickup issue with a minimum of body alteration and fuss. This place is a real gem and ALL strings players should take note and lean on Manella's experience. Many famous players who live in the area only take their gear to Manella. Also do tube amps. Do not miss this place!

Have you ever gone down a rabbit hole of dance videos online, and you want to move like that? Well, FireWall definitely can give you that moment with choreography, movement, and video. A friend and I attended a special Sip & Sexy 2-hour event, and we were floored by how fun it was. For the first time, I felt sexy when dancing, and the people at FireWall are truly a hype squad. I'm sold, and I've purchased a class pass to return to more classes (and I have!). Parking can be spicy, but if you're there after 6 pm, street parking becomes free. If you want free parking, you'll need to park up near Josephine Street, and that's a few blocks away.

There is a huge free parking lot in the back as well. The owner is one of the sweetest people I've met and I've only been to two classes. Very uplifting and radiates positivity. Love that it is a drop in studio so adults are welcome. Honestly my only down fall now is that you are still required to wear masks even with the mandates lifted and being vaccinated. I totally understand wanting to be extra cautious, selfishly just hate being so sweaty in a mask dancing. will be back for more.
