For those true audiophiles who realize Chinese players are superior,LOL,(totally kidding)  what or where are the options for repair????   I have a Hisoundaudio Studio V that needs a new jack, which I believe is causing it to keep shutting down.   I can't find a local cell phone repair to work on it.   I contacted Nick at Leckerton Audio and he said he won't do any repairs.  The safest bet seems to buy a 3yr Square Trade Warrantee, which I have used in the past and they are extremely good in honoring their warrantee for full refund.
 
 Besides a DIY repair(I don't even know how to take it apart) has anyone found a  shop here in the US that will work on them, or is it now worth it and best to just ship back to China???

Just look around for some basic electronics/HiFi repair shops.  
 
As a random example, a place like this in San Francisco would likely take on a repair like this or at least take a look at it:

Or maybe even someone like this nearer you?

It's worth a shot if there is any value left in the player...

LOL, I checked one stereo repair store here and they said they wouldn't look at it.   I'll check the one you mentioned on Monday.   Hate to have to ship to CA!

Like I said, they were just random to show what kind of place to look for... good luck!
