So I ordered some parts from Newark to repair my fusion amp.
While uninstalling the amp, I was attempting to cut the negative cable, and the positive one came loose and struck the case, causing damage. I took it apart, and found a soot mark on the board and a burned up resistor. I understand visual diagnosis is not all it takes, but for $22 I can attempt to repair and if it does notwork, I'm not really out anything, I can't sell or use the amp now anyways.
My question is as follows.
I bought the fets, and the resistors. I bought two different ones, as I wasn't sure which ones I needed. So, now I have some 1/4 5% 100ohm resistors (as indicated by color rings) I wasn't sure the wattage so I got the same in a 1W version, 1% tolerance. They are larger, but would fit. albeit differently. Which would should I use? The one thats identical to the original, or the larger lower tolerance unit?
