Is it trash??

Ok guys I got my old MB Quart RAA4200 sitting here and was wondering what should I do with it and whats wrong with it. One day I was taking a road trip to my friends house and I believe one of the speaker wires touched another one and blew the front two channels in the amp...The amp also never cuts off anymore with the power wires attached. When I turn the car off it just goes into protect and stays on. If i turn the car back on then the green light comes on and it plays until I turn the car back off where it just goes back into protect mode and proceeds to drain down my battery. So Im trying to get some guesses at whats wrong with the amp and if it can be fixed and do you think anyone would want to buy this off me lol....

Your going to need a lot more help than what the forum can provide you. You can either pay someone to fix it, or really get your hands dirty learning how to fix it yourself. If you choose the latter, your going to want some kind of tutorial/guide, I recommend this one. But your going to need equipment (soldering iron, scope, function generator) so paying someone to fix it will probably be cheaper in the long run, but if you take the time to learn how to do it, you'll end up with a pretty useful skill.
