Alright, been a while since I've been on the forums, figured somebody might be able to help me out here. I have an audiopipe AP-18001 that I picked up from a member on here. You can hate but its what I could afford and it does the job for me. So on to the problem. I had it mounted in a bad spot and vibrations broke loose one of the toroids. The wires of the toroid rubbed until the coating wore away and it shorted out. Nothing else on the board appears to have been damaged. It just goes into protect when powered up. Is there any way to get a replacement and just solder it in?

You could give it a go. Not much else you really can do. If you cant fix it, its going in the trash anyway.

That's what I figured, just gotta try and find out what the specs of the coil are I guess... And I have no idea how to do that!

IMO the time and the money it will take to fix the amp is not worth it. You would be better off buying a new amp.

In my experience with simulations, if the power supply went my resistors and caps don't like it.

Get a new amp that is worth the money.

Krakin, are you some sort of mad scientist?

I would have replied earlier, but I was measuring the output of my amp with a yardstick . . .

What you hear is not the air pressure variation in itself

but what has drawn your attention

in the two streams of superimposed air pressure variations at your eardrums

An acoustic event has dimensions of Time, Tone, Loudness and Space

Everyone learns to render the 3-dimensional localization of sound based on the individual shape of their ears,

thus no formula can achieve a definite effect for every listener.
