      How did you get the D3020 out of the case? Trying to fix one of these but disassembly is, er, difficult.

      @sdgelectronics  หลายเดือนก่อน

      @ckm-mkc unscrew the back panel, then apply some heat to loosen up the adhesive (you can just pull it off, but it's easier with heat). There is a bunch of screws behind the panel. Then pull the back out and the side will fall off

    One of the best repair video I have watched in a long time. Excellent thought process and explanations. I have also been fighting this awful glue with the famously flawed Jarre Tower speakers retailing for a stupid amount of money. The PSU and power stages were covered with this corrosive junk and I became the world expert in repairing these 🤣 At some point the manufacturer just stopped their activity and sent me their customers for repairs. I traced the issue to a Chinese factory that built these boards and was using this glue. I still don't know if they use this glue on purpose to shorten the life of the products but it could be the case. Thanks for the great video!

    Very thorough diag & repair - nice one. A cynical person might suspect that these manufacturers know full well what happens to these glues over time and are perfectly happy about it.....a slightly less cynical person might suspect that the Chinese manufacturers they all use are less scrupulous than one might like and are using cheap alternatives to the specified adhesives. An entirely non-cynical view might be that the manufacturers have been duped, a bit like the old fake capacitor electrolyte scandal from a few years back.
    Whichever is true, it seems a good first step with anything like this is to remove all traces of adhesive, inspect very carefully for damaged traces & vias and go from there.

    Hello Steve, I can't believe this but your video comes 3 days before my own beloved D3020 has just gone pop. It's especially brilliant as there's very little out there about this brill little amp.
    Mine powers up fine after its startup routine on the front panel but on startup it sends a big pop out of the left channel and there's no sound from the left channel at all. The front panel is very DIM compared to when it was new and the sound level is severely reduced too.
    Any ideas 🙏

    • @sdgelectronics
      @sdgelectronics  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Are all of the LEDs on the front panel the same brightness? It could be the phosphor on the LEDs have degraded, or a low supply voltage. For the pop/no sound, you'd need to probe the audio into the Class D amplifier to see if audio is making it out of the preamp/input switch/volume control. The pop suggests you're getting DC somewhere in the audio chain.

    I have a newer model of this DAC amp, it's a nice package, easy to setup and use with the 1 large volume knob, but the capacitive touch mode select button NAD replaced with a 1/2 size indexing rotary knob. Surprisingly powerful, and accepts all music formats and resolutions seamlessly. However. The digital volume function has random drift up or down creating frustrating slow volume decrease or dangerous volume increase. Volume drift has occurred while powered on but not in use, resulting in catastrophic speaker damaging sound explosion on unaware music start. NAD has been a favourite brand for decades owning value for money, innovative technology, and surviving in the fickle high cost high end audio market. They don't often make mistakes but when they do they're huge and weird - they were early proponents of direct digital including volume control, you'd think they'd just get it right.
    Apropos of this excellent video id'd problem of the pcb component glue. Design of packaged electronics is my profession, and I've had numerous debates with electronic engineers and pcb layout people on large component mounting. As Hypex OEM's these amp modules, they don't know or control where or how they're used, so it is a smart design to provide additional large component mounting. Glues are also used for vibration isolation, tamper proofing, and sometimes obscure and weak argument for creepage and clearance issues. Hypex would have specified a glue, but they might have left the glue selection up to whatever the contract manufacturer was already using, this is typical procedure. I'm a proponent of mechanical mounted securing and vibration isolation, with tamper proof connections if required.
