1. Product: Diablo Audio Technologies Inferno 8.1

2. Specs: 8000w@ 1ohm at 14.4 Best was little under 12k @1ohm at 17v

3. Description/Condition: Blown. Looks like 6 fets went (IFRP 360's) and torched the supply leads pretty good. I would replace all FET's anyway. No burns to the board that can be seen. Traces still all look good as well. Transformers have a little soot on them, but the varnish looks to be undamaged. Small nicks and scratches as well as a little dusty.

Only 6 of these were ever made. While most of the DAT lines had issues, this amp was in service for nearly 2 years at .5 ohm.

It will be up to you or your repair guy to fix this. While it does look straight forward, I can not imply that is an easy or simple fix as I have not and will not diagnose it. I will say that when these amps are working that they are a powerhouse. I have a number of someone in louisville, KY who can make the repairs to these amps and I will include that number with the item and information regarding reaching the people.

Amp does come with back plate, bass knob and cord. The new owner can also have the protel diagram sheets i'll print off and include. I can even toss in a DAT logo plexi plate for the bottom and a lot of the DAT decals in various sizes.

It is called Hellfire as when they were first being made, an error in translation issues made them hellfires but this was later corrected, making this an even rarer piece. I had planned to get it repaired and working in my new build but since I can't find a dat multi channel amp anywhere.. I am gonna try other brands.

4. Price: 400 + shipping.

5. Trades: Other mono amps, just offer up. Subwoofer motors also interest me.

****, at that price, got me thinking of buying it. Haha. Any wild guess on how much something like this would cost to repair? 200 maybe?
no clue bro. as im out of audio and have been a while now.. i'd have no idea who/where to ask around for this... just wanting to move it.

 
Who's the amp repair man around here? Dont mean to thread jack but didnt know there was someone local, let alone skilled to work on big mono's too.
david stevens, done it for over 20 years if I recall.

you can, all I was told when I called was 30 dollars to look at it + whatever it'd cost to repair pending what you wanted, 6 fets + leads or all fets + leads.

for what im asking either way it still shouldn't be anymore than if you bought a working one of these and slim chance of finding one of the other 6 in this near mint condition lol.
