They're called mosfets. Transistors.

chris at db-r should be able to get that done quickly. I sent mine there and was done in a week or so. Great service and knows what he is doing.

[morgans432 10+ year member]

shouldn't be terrible, prob around $120 or so plus shipping. Normally nothing over $150 unless its horrible. They aren't bad prices at all.

My friend has his XX Hercules repaired at Amp Repair Center. They did a great job and had his amp back to him in 2 days. They have fixed several of my amps and I've never had a problem with them. DB-r is not the only company capable of fixing amps.....

here is what happened to my powerbass 3000 and how much it cost. This is directly from chris at db-r

The Aux power supply in your amp was blown, it is a smaller power supply inside the amp that has a seperate small power transformer, it is used to run things like the driver boards, input circuit etc. We had to replace the mosfets and some resistors and other misc small parts to get it working again. No output or main power supply mosfets were changed or modified. Warranty only covers the aux power supply.

I am guessing around 200 at db-r. I havent used anyone else but chris is a great guy. Sent two amps to him and it was as soon as he started his new shop so it took quite awhile to get them back but he gave me a hell of a deal. Always on top of his stuff. Another +1 for db-r

db-r.com if you havent got it
