Best bet would be to become friends with an electronics geek or blow major $$$ for service....

What are the symptoms and why did it stop working (what did you do before it stopped working)?

If it smelled like burnt electronics then most likely it's screwed - if you have any fuses on the amp check them first though.....

Just open it and check for something burnt, from what you said it sounds like it could be a MOSFET.
