benz280se Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 (edited) whatup folks there is a guy at my shop that has a memphis belle amp that only has one or two working channells he's not sure, but he wants to trade me for a working rf p8002. i know the memphis belle amps were pretty tight and hard to get a hold of now but should i do this? how much if any you think i should ask for? does memphis still repair these amps? thanks for any help finally got it in my hands havent traded yet i want to see how badly damaged inside is first he said the amp worked cause he used it and it got damaged after he took it out of his car by movers and destructive seven year olds. any more opinions now that its visible?

benz280se Posted March 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 you can get any amp repaired well maybe i said that wrong cause any hack can throw some stuff into an amp and call it repaired. what i mean is there someone special that i would send this amp to; because sometimes its hard to find someone that will work on an old amp. for example a few years back i had to send my us amps 400 to mississippi to get repaired because they didnt work on the older amps in house, they do now but you get the point. i havent had to have an amp repaired in almost seven years so maybe things have changed a tiny bit. and besides that im asking because i found out thru asking that repair on jl amps are almost as expensive as buying one because of the parts they use. is it the same for memphis? if any body has a better answer than the one-liner king please feel free to post. besides my main question is does anybody here think the trade is a good one?

AI James Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 DB-R electronics can work on it for you, he works on alot more expensive amps then the belle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techaninna Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 call or e-mail chris at db-r.com or view his website www.db-r.com for all the info. He will let you know if he can fix it. I think he might have a warranty with all repaired amps. I am not sure if memphis still repairs their older amps or not. what model is the memphis?

memphis_finest1 Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 whatup folks there is a guy at my shop that has a memphis belle amp that only has one or two working channells he's not sure, but he wants to trade me for a working rf p8002. i know the memphis belle amps were pretty tight and hard to get a hold of now but should i do this? how much if any you think i should ask for? does memphis still repair these amps? thanks for any help Memphis charges about 200 to fix an amp is it worth it ? Im a real big fan of memphis amps but if your amp is in perfect working order id keep it Quote ALLAH's the most gracious, he made the universe the most spaciousSeen and heard in all places, but still appear facelessEmbraces all races, all caste and all casesIn every spec of life he's the substance of all traces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
