Well, turns out one transistor on the pnp board and one on the npn board decided to to punch out.
Funny, I used a 100 watt bulb to power this thing up, before I discovered / looked for the blown outputs. I had one fuse pulled for the right (dead) channel, and let it sit powered up like that for a couple minutes or so. As I was puttering about, the magic steam came pouring out of the polarized cap on the output board. Since one transistor was shorted on each side, it fed the cap "backwards", and made it mad. I kept thinking to (was it k-amps post?) that said he never smoked an amp using the bulb. Leave it to me..... |
