jcm1689 Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 (edited) idk if anyone would know or not but im not real familliar with power acoustik amps. if i took the back off of one to try and repair it would this void the warranty through power acoustik or there is a 3 year warranty on the amp from beachaudio.com where it was ordered could it affect this warranty too??????

jcm1689 Posted May 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 (edited) kinda hard to see but everything in about a 6" away from the power/ground inputs is completely fried and at least half if not completely melted down........now my question is since its right by the power inputs would this still be cause by wiring the subs to .7 ohms??????? or was it just a defect.....cause i know they probably wouldnt go out at the same time but the amplifier is still fine well for now anyways.

David Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 that amp is toast, you smoked a few mosfets, most likely fixable call PA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcm1689 Posted May 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2007 so is that for sure the result of wiring at .7 ohms??? if so will power acoustik be able to tell that it was wiried to low?

Chris Posted May 21, 2007 Report Share Posted May 21, 2007 so is that for sure the result of wiring at .7 ohms??? if so will power acoustik be able to tell that it was wiried to low? Definately. Mosfets are usually the first thing to go when going below a rated ohm load. Sure PA will probably know, but they can't prove it, so it will be fixed.
