Ordering some CS4231A-KQs for future repairs made me wonder what other chips on the Empeg are prone to failure and might need to be stockpiled to assure future repairs can be made without having to replace the whole mainboard or display board. Any suggestions?

Some of the 74LVX04's seems to occasionally go dead but I wouldn't bother stocking up on those
You could replace the dalsemi temp chip (can't remember the exact chip number) if people have a misprogrammed one.

How much would you (not necessarily directed at tman) charge for that service? (replacing the temp sensor)

If you're after any 4231's, we have plenty left for repairs. We managed to end up with quite a few coming back from the factory after the production had finished (looks like someone overordered)

So should I cancel my order if possible?
