Hi
I got this amp for free, not working propperly, it plays, sounds nice, but suddenly the speakers start peaking, sounds like DC peaks hitting hard the speakers, I'm scared about my woofers. It happens with every input, in both speakers outputs. The amp looks like working fine except for that, so I think it wouldn't be hard to fix it. Never tried to repair a power amp, some basic safety tips or things I should be aware of? Also, any idea on where start looking?
I've downloaded the manual service, with the schematics and such.
Some pics of the unit:
Front:
Back:
Inside:
The IC:
Main Board:
Fabricado En España (Made In Spain) Maybe that's the main issue with it? ;D
Input Board:
Power Transformer
Would be nice to make it work, if it ain't worth, always could recycle the case for a little project I'd like to do...
EDIT: Maybe I should say I've sprayed contact cleaner (the same I used in my mackie) in the volume fader when it was working, some time ago, and then it keeped working for a few months.
