Neat! Sounds like it would have benefitted from a charge pump on the gate drivers. I've got a Phoenix Gold Ti series amp that I still need to repair. It melted its power cables... I dunno.. 15 years ago... and I haven't yet gotten around to trying to figure out why. Haven't had any amps in a car since then, and if I did, it would likely be Class D now. But it was such a nice amp back in the day that I can't bear to part with it. I had a PPI PC2150 alongside it, which I gave to another enthusiast recently. I go back and forth between being happy it's with someone that will use it as more than a paperweight, and being sad to let go of such a beautiful amp.
It's a 50/50 shot. Sometimes I do sometimes I don't, it really depends on how prolonged the voltage was after the failure from the driver transistor's shorting
i submitted for your email address. i've got some presumably cool amps and speakers(b&o) that are in need of repair. i would love for someone to fix them and enjoy them rather than have to send them to the dumpster.
I like the outputs made of used wick :)
It works 😂
@@THEtechknight that is what matters!

I need you to see mines it's the 502-1 also. It's powers up but maybe the same identical problem. Can you talk a look for me.
i got the x 301 i love mine only thing though is it gets super hot just being turned on
Do you ever see the TL 494 chips going out?

I never received an email, interesting. I need to check the spam filters
I have not seen any emails, So maybe try reaching out to me on Twitter DMs? Techknight2
