In Need of Electronic Help

My daughter recently bought me some Speakers for my BD, so I dug my old Sansui 7070 Receiver out of storage in an attempt to re-establish my old vintage stereo system. I am not getting any sound, but its all lit up like it should be working. 
Thinking I should have it checked out since its so old and has been in storage for years. Any suggestions on a a fair, dependable Electronics Repairman?

Is the electronics repair shop in an old house on Foster by Claycut still there? I don't see it on Google Maps.
If you absolutely have to have this unit working, McCann Electronics down in Metry is still around. LINK They're great people, but be prepared for some sticker-shock, even just for an estimate. As in it may be cheaper to just buy a new one.
I assume that you've hit the switches and knobs with some contact cleaner (available at, yes, Radio Shack).
One free tip: the relay that selects the A/B speakers may stick after years of non-use. Some judicious kinetic adjustment may be in order (translation: whack it).

By the way, is it this monster?
If you want to get your hands dirty there's stuff all over the web about troubleshooting / repair.

This thing has much sentimental value too me. I have had it since 1976.

I know a guy in Lafayette who fixes these. Do you want his contact info?
