I contacted Cerwin Vega and they want 200$ for a replacement... I figured for that much money someone either knew of a better amp to put in it or something that meets the same specs for much cheaper(this is optimal)

The following data is off of Cerwin Vega's site.

Performance Data:
  • Frequency Response: 28 Hz - 150 Hz
  • Peak Power Handling: 400 watts
  • Program Power Handling: 200 watts
  • Crossover:
    LPF: Continuously variable from 40 Hz to 150 Hz
I also dont mind if I have to mod the backplate into the box.
 
I am reviving this thread, because I am trying to repair one of these subwoofers.

The SMPS is blowing MOSFETS, old glue became conductive, which fried a "daughter board" that drives the MOSFETS. Resistors are burned, can not find original values.

I cannot simply replace the power supply with a transformer + rectifier because the amp has a multi-pin ribbon connecting the SMPS to the amp, and also additional wires for main power.

I DO NOT WANT TO MODIFY THE BACKPLATE, I am trying to find another amp to swap in, or if somebody knows where to locate a schematic for this subwoofer, I still may try to repair it.
