What to look for when diagnosing an amplifier?

[turtlestrap]

Haha, its good the amp is ok. I'd rather feel like an idiot than have broken equipment

Haha yeah no kidding. The amp isn't doing much right now to be honest. I have a JL 12w6 hooked up to it on the sub channel @ 2 ohms right now, its rated at 400 @ 1 ohm on the sub channel, so probably 250W @ 2 ohms?

Don't really have any components that I can hook it up to.

Probably try selling it on here pretty soon //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Well, it looks like you already have an interested buyer! Good luck with sale, and remember to follow the rules if you do list it in the classifieds.

Having a spaghetti of wiring just laying around isn't good. On a side note, at least it was somewhat user fault than the amp being bad.

Also.....thought it was the "big" belle amp. Completely forgot about the baby one, which is difficult to find. (my bad)

9 times outta 10 someone will say check your connections 1st. Kinda go back over retrace your steps.

you'd want to use a higher end DMM to test for shorts and ohm loads on power/ ground terminals, each set of speaker outputs, and various transistors on the boards.
