Dead Amp... advice?


KillaCam

Recommended Posts

My amp stopped working so I took it in to get tested and its "dead". I took it apart and nothing seems wrong, nothings burnt or anything, nothing smells funny. Id like to fix it myself but I dont know whats wrong with it or how to figure out the problem. I'm guessing that the power supply is bad but idk for sure. I think it blew because I had it wired @ 2ohms and it wasnt very stable... so any suggestions? thanks

btw its a Kenwood Kac-8104d

And the fact more than one person agrees does not make it a circle jerk, it makes it a bukkake scene and you're in the middle ;)

Chick took 3 shots of Jager, and then, pissed in my mouth..

I thought the amp is 2 ohm stable..

Details:

» mono subwoofer amplifier

» 300 watts RMS x 1 at 4 ohms (500 watts x 1 at 2 ohms)

» CEA-2006 compliant

» variable low-pass filter (50-200 Hz at 24 dB per octave)

» bass boost (0-18 dB at 40 Hz )

» subsonic filter (15/25 Hz, 18 dB/octave )

» Class D design

» speaker-level inputs with signal sensing turn-on

» preamp-level inputs and outputs

» fuse rating: 40A x 1

» 8-gauge power and ground leads recommended — wiring and hardware not included with amplifier

» 11-1/16"W x 2-3/8"H x 9-7/8"D

Amp costing $109, I personally think it's worth a fix. I would just buy a new one imo...
