[QUOTE="Spooney, post: 7098773, member: 584130"] I just wanna put this out there for the people looking to get repair quotes on their amps......Just because you only see one or two burnt components on the board doesn't mean that the only problems with the amp are those burnt components. There is a very good chance that there are other parts that are defective that look completely normal to the naked eye. FET's blow/short out all the time with no visual sign of a problem. You will most likely get a more accurate repair quote if you simply tell Mike in the best detail possible what the problem is with the amp. Most good amp repair techs can diagnose an amp problem based on a good description of the issue rather than a pic of two burnt resistors. Just my two cents and sorry Mike if you feel this is uncalled for. Just kinda irks me reading through this and knowing a good bit about amp repairs when people say something like " there are only 3 burnt capacitors and I think thats the only problem" . [/QUOTE]
