Whats wrong with this amp?

I dont know much about amps so i was hoping someone could tell me what happened to this amp and maybe an estimate of what you think it might cost to fix it. Its not my amp, its a friend of mines, so I dont know exactly what the conditions were when it stopped working. Its a Diamond Audio d1000.1 Thanks .

He is the man to go to without question. But that issue just by eye is either gonna just be a few cheap replacement pieces or a major cost.

Hard to tell because your pics are a little too close up but i'm guessing based on the proximity to the transformer that you have some blown power supply fets. If one power supply fet blows you have to replace them all and its not a bad idea to change the gate resistors connected to them either along with the power supply ic. Could be even more damage as well. More often than not blown output transistors will cause a failure of the power supply fets.

burnt

Also it is hard to tell from the pic whether there is just a bunch of soot on the board or if the board itself is burnt. If the board were to get burnt too severely it may not be fixable at all. Assuming the board is useable id say roughly 100 bucks in repairs but without the amp in hand its really hard to know exactly the extent of the damage

It's blown. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

Just finished repairing one. They're moderate to work on.

Blown Mosfets to say the least. Board dont look to bad. Should be fixable pending thats ll that wrong.
