Doylerules826 Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 Ok I have I had this amp running and it started smoking, Immediately I turned it off, took it out opened it up and this is what I saw I tested it today and it did power up however I didnt test if it had sound, But can some one explain me to what exactly that thing is/does and if I would be ok using the amp with it damaged and/or if it replaceable. thanks 2000 chevy blazer Avic n1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainzPlanetz Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 I have a bit of an idea, but I dont want to throw out any false info, probably Boon or another one of the Amp Guru's will chime in soon. Edit: Also what amp is it? ¿ǝɯɐƃ ǝɥʇ Trolls never learn............ All BS aside, If I see one more comment in here that is NOT about the pre-sale, I will start the vacations. And that includes the trolls feeding the trolls. YOU THE ONE THAT SOUND LIKE A OGER AND HUMPBACK/TROLLS? Add "SMDLIFER" on Xbox LIVE to play with other SMD members.

Boon Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 Shit, that thing's well toasted. I'm having a hard time believing it still turns on! FETs must have just blown themselves out of the circuit completely, normally they go short-circuit when they die. In fact, what, does it REALLY still turn on? The gate resistors are all smoked to hell so the drive circuit is probably fucked and the 494IC is probably freaking out. In fact I can see from the pic that your gate drive transistors are smoked, probably some of the resistors too. Probably not a super hard fix for an amp tech as long as the traces are OK and depending on the reason that it blew up... if the power supply blew because the outputs blew as well then you may as well chuck it in the bin. Seriously... it still turns on? Holy shit O____O 10.x volts fo' life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously... it still turns on? Holy shit O____O IDK why, but that face is funny. But I'm thinking the same thing. We need vids for proof. And I doubt the traces are ok. I've seen less damage then that where it couldn't be repaired because the traces were gone.

Doylerules826 Posted November 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 Alright well thanks for all your input, I will get a video of it turning on tomowwor. But boon you got a general price range you think that this would cost to fix? 2000 chevy blazer Avic n1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
