and if its not eff'd who on here can fix it for me? cause i dont wanna get rid of this amp because it sounds soo clean. thanks, ranger

 
Tom over at CACo_Org does good work too, I thought DB-r decided to only repair Sundown and other big Class D amps? Might have been something I read but there are other options.

Zed Audio is the number 1 repair tech for Xtant products as MTX/Mitek no longer supports the Xtant line, Steve has repaired tons of Xtant amplifiers.

 
sweet. thanks you guys for telling me its fixable, and i believe this is a d-class but im not 100% sure, and can you tell me who to get a hold of? i took it out and looked at the backside of the board and the solders are still silver/ grey color and not 1 solder joint is burnt at all. i love this lil amp it sounds great and puts out the POWA!! lol. and are any of those guys close to mn?
