Anyone know of a good person that does amp repair... I got a powerbass asa 1000.1D that I got in a trade that doesn't work... Anyone willing to take a look at it?

I believe Spooney does... Get in contact with him. I hear his prices are reasonable as well.

Any one would recommend? I didnt really pay much for it curious if its even fixable.

 

[DoesDad 10+ year member]

I'm sure it's fixable. Leave this post up for a couple hours. You'll get a few hits. There's a few guys that fix amps on here. Powerbass is a decent amp. Be a shame to junk it if it's an easy fix ya know?

Yeah I know but I know it's been opened ... Missing screws in the bottom... Guy said it would work an then shut right back off

Craigslist I'm guessing? I bought an old school Kicker dx760 off cl a few months back. All I checked was that it powered on. Well it turned on but didn't work. I took it to a little shop here in town and they fixed it for 40 bucks. I should have known it was fishy. It was only 50 bucks but you know how it goes... All's well that ends well.

kinda i sold one of my amps to the guy and he had this one laying beside it in the back of his truck asked if he still wanted it and he gave it to me

Ampmedics does good work. Hard to say if it's worth shipping 2 ways + repiar on an amp like that, it may come up close to what you'll pay for 1000W used

not sure if he's still doing it but ampjunkielikeme fixed an amp for me a couple years ago and did a great job, good rates too

well, the bare minimum shipping flat rate would be 25 total both ways in a med flat rate, if you could build something strong enough to protect the terminals, like sheet-metal, lol. it's almost the exact size of the med flat tare box. otherwise, there is also the large flat rate game board box that ships for about $15 each way. there is a chance that the parts are going to run 25-50, possibly more or less. then there is the labor time, which could be an hour, or could be over5. the amp is worth 100-150imho, depending on condition, even less if it's pretty bad. i cannot say one way or the other if it would be worth paying to have it fixed, because you could get lucky, or end up upside-down on it, but will likely end up breaking even....

If its anything like the asa 1500.1 dx then the amp is very similar to the power acoustik A3000db/2400db etc series amps. In the 1500.1 dx the board wasn't laid out the same but the circuit was pretty much the same part for part.
