doesnt cost much if you know how to fix them yourself, but you cant just replace those and be finished there are usually other things that blow or burn out when something happens to an amp

/\+1 to what he said.

If they are the FET's usually something causes them to blow, it cost 225 I believe to get mine fixed. Or something in the ballpark

if you bought paaco's amp...then it used to be mine..you blew it?

Hard telling, Most common are the IRF-z44's. But just like everyone else is saying if a bank burns out there is always a reason and depending on what else they burnt with them. I have a friend that does all my amp repair work and have relied on him for years. Not somethig I would try myself.

Or tell him it was my old amp and he didnt fix it right and you want it fixed for free //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

So what could i have done to do this...

So what could i have done to do this...

Maybe nothing, if it was repaired before it is suspect. Aside from improper gain setting or driving a unstable load it could just be its time. Also input voltage can kill some amps.

Well i looked at everything today...it burned the postive wire going from the amp to the binding terminal...and sort of burned the binding terminal like it got to much current or something... the gains where under half way.
