George,

Never got your email. I can tell you if you want me to replace the RCA's I can do it for cheap! Most of the cost is shipping the amps back to you, depending on were you live. If you want to do the repair yourself, it will cost about $8 bucks as I can ship you a new terminal block and you can replace it. Just need a soldering iron, phillips, and some allen wrenches. The repair will probably take you 20 minutes at most!

This is not a common problem at all, a few brands out of a ton have RCA that fit too tight and are not the standard ends, so when you try to remove them you are forced to pull hard and in return pull the end of the RCA off. Several companies have asked these other wire manufactures to go back to standard tolerances to avoid this problem.

Thanks,

Nick

gracias amigo. yea i THOUGHT it was a common problem but you talk to more people about your amps that i do, and you know them better as well. it was just my assumption from reading a few posts. i figured a couple people posted, means there are probably a lot that havent.

anyways, as for the soldering, what would i be soldering? ive only soldered once in my life and it was a bigger chunck of wire so if this is some teeny wires or something ill probably ship it to ya. now if you tellme its easy ill probalby just go do it myself. i appreciate the quick and friendly response.

as for you not recieving my email. could be a result of many things. shit i might of even wrote the email adress wrong. you know how computers work lol.

thanks again Nick, you run your business very well //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/clap.gif.178cba2c538c68e720c727fcb024b19c.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbsupwink.gif.129404938effda6ad9cca39e7f4b58a3.gif

No problem at all! You take the screws out of the back cover and out of the board mounting it to the heatsink, then 2 on each end of the end cap, then use a allen to remove the end caps from the board. Then you just unsolder 6 pings, pull the RCA block out, replace it, then solder it again, then reassemble. The pins are somewhat small but I haven't found anyone that couldn't do this repair yet. So far I'd say 3 or 4 people have replaced them, most of which is good old UPS for the damages! Tell you what email me and we'll setup the shipment of the block. When you get ready to do it, if you need help I can talk you through it on the phone!

Thanks,

Nick

I had that problem for a bit. I just brought the SSF up off the minimum and it went away. Mine happened with the CD paused. It may have had something to do with one of the amps, I'm always switching stuff around and prolly never wire it twice the same way.
