A 340 is nice. The 330 is pretty much the same, except for being
monochrome.

The problem with the 340 is that the power supply have a tendency
of blowing up with age. (I have two broken ones...)

Can they be replaced with anything sensible, i.e. could a qualified
electrician build a new one for not too much effort?

  Electricians do not do this sort of work.   They primarily pull cable
and run what amounts to plumbing and lots of physical construction.
What you're talking about is engineering.

  It would likely be easier to repair the existing power supplies.   Are
schematics around?
