Hello all,
My sub started crackling after watching a Interstellar (fantastic movie btw) and I am quite certain after speaking with tech support from energy (now Klipsch) that it is due to a faulty amplifier. I did the pushing the cone test and it is nice and spongy.
That being said, I unscrewed the plate (no, it isn't under warranty unfortunately) and am staring at the plate amplifier. I have seen replacements that may be suitable such as the Bash 300S, but i am really looking for someone with some knowledge to lend me a thought or two on the proper route to take.
Being fairly technical, but not an electrician I do not see any blown capacitors or singed electronics. Fuse is not blown. Being thrifty as I am and enjoying holding onto my cash, I am looking into alternatives to buying a total replacement. Is there a guide to test the amplifier boards? Something to check with a meter?
It wont let me post pics but I can try and send a link on PM if that will help.
Thanks a bunch,
Kory
