1) Never loan out your car again.

2) Find better friends. If you spend time with successful people, you have a much better chance of becoming successful yourself.

If you have four kids, and no job, you have to get money from somewhere.

Add an extra 10% on, seeing as how its really just your tax money anyway, along with everyone elses.

Or make him get a job to pay you- shit, theres no way he cant work at mcdonalds or something to make some money.

Put a DMM on AC on one of the output channels while the amp has signal from the head unit to it...if you have any signs of life comming out from it, your problem is elsewhere. If you have no AC voltage comming out of either channel, its fuxored and you have either the output stage FET's crispy or the dc to ac power supply had bad FETs.

FET's for those PA's are around $2.50 a pop, you can need up to 20 of them in worse case scenerio.

There is a whole bunch of independant tests that should probably be performed to actually diagnose whats specifically wrong with that amp, and without you having some basic electronics & op-amp theory you cant obviously fix it yourself.

good luck though, I can suggest a place though http://www.amprepaircenter.com...they're fairly reasonable and will work on older motherboards like you have.

thanks for the info...i e-mailed amprepaircenter.com and i'll probably just send it in over there. They don't sound too expensive and they give a 90day warranty on there work.

I had my ipod hooked up through the aux input on the HU... so my idiot friend said..."it wouldn't get loud unless i turned the volume ALL the way up!!"... so i think the HU maxed out = clipped to death:crap:

If the gain was set with a 0db test tone and @ 3/4 volume, It would have taken a long time for the speakers and amp to over heat. What is your electrical systm like? HU clipping may not be the cause of death.
