I got a storage room and she never goes in there, if she know how much money i have spent on amplifiers and stuff i would never hear the end of it.

I simply love this amp its untouched inside not like the 0.3 it had signs of total stupidity of the person working on it before me, im leaving it for some days until i know what i want to do with it.

I dont understand why some people just got to over tighten the bolts, thhe bolts should have a plastic washer between the bolt and plexi. I cant decide if im going to keep this in my ever growing PG colection or if i should sell it, are theyt worth more with caps changed with new cooling paste?. My ...

Well i got my 0.5 today its in good shape and the indside looks clean, its white and got the v2 upgrade does the caps need changing there is alot of them. Here are som pictures of it the plexi got some cracks in the corners, i think i will clean it up change the caps and apply new cooling paste then...

Yes i did check them but i will test them again when i get of work, thanks for your help

I have tested the ones you told me to again and all are ok the problem is the showing of voltage both to display and led the display turns on and of like a indicator relay on a car so something tells me that it may be a relay causing it.

Don't go ordering parts so quick... Let me get this straight...the whole unit is not powering up? In other words your not getting any oscillation in the power supply? Check Q13-16 and their 2.2ohm fuse resistors. The blue arrow is a relay, I doubt that is bad...one way to find out is to have it eng...

I can find many 4N25 Optoisolators but i cant find the QTC 4N35 924Q, one of my board on the brooken one got two 4N35 0201K and one 4N35 0150K I think i can use any one of these 3 optoisolators but i dont know if i can use others on digikey because i cant find the value on the ones i got.

I thought I had a copy of the r-link schematic but after digging around I can't find it. It could be as simple as replacing that led. I was trying to break it down to hook it up to a new elite amp and if I remember correctly one or both of the leds in that circuit powered a different portion of the...

Im checking now and i see that the one i put the yellow arrow on is the display driver and they are in stock, the blue on are not in stock anywhere but i found some on ebay but they are 24vdc mine are Omron G5A 234P and got 1539EA1 on the side. Im also having problems finding the red ones they got Q...

I bought a broken sdt-ti kit a while back, i have been refunded the money i payed and i get to keep the broken unit. Since i get to keep it i want to try and repair it, i have bought a working unit from a phorum mmber so i can test on that and see if the values are the same on both. My problem with ...

The way i understand it does not matter if you go up in voltage?, when it comes to Uf its better the higher you go because it removes noize. On my zpa i use the 8200uf and on my zx/ti series i use 5200-6800uf, the main problem for demosta was that like in my country its hard to find a company who se...

been working for years and all I have used is a solder gun, a cordless gas powered and a desoldering iron. I think I have $75 in all of them. I had a desoldering iron but it started leaking and this is much better it sucks the feet out of the vias and there is no leftover solder in the vias im alwa...

Got my desoldering station today, i bought a spare gun and alot of extra parts so i have spares if it break as its a cheap station. My first thought was how heavy it was i would have thought for the price it would be light as a feather, so i pluged it in and started testing it and it works good it s...

Just got the sdt-ti kit wit two displays i bought from dvnt88 and im just done testing it and it work great, he even gave me the oem box and he had done a got job protecting the displays and box.
Great seller and i would not hesitate to deal with him again

Be careful with the "new" but missing box items. I got an sld44 that was "new" without a box and it turned out to give a highly distorted signal. I replaced all caps on it and now works fine. The seller said he bought it and was going to install it but when he started the instal...

It got some scuffs but its clean inside and it got all the white feet on it, the TLD66 is brand new but missing its box.

Du you mean the red or the yellow light, the yellow if it is to hot (thermal) protect is if its shorted or to high voltage etc.
I cant help you much here there are far better people on this phorum for that so i just wanted to get clear what light it was.

I use 16v/8200uf but you can use the ones you got, isopropanol is hard to get here to they cghanged the name and its now called "blue wash" or blå vask in my country. You can clean the board with eletric cleaner in a can i bought different types and they work great, i spray of the board wi...

Take a picture of the caps with the plexi cover of if the caps are dark blue with a gold line down the side they are original, also the serial nr is inside on the motherboard i would love to know what it is?. Welcome to the phorum im from Norway, i changed the caps with ones that looks very much lik...

i also got my first phoenix gold project today! it is ZPA 0.3. amp is very ugly and need to be re-painted, maybe new capacitors etc. sadly that plexi-glass is broken. it is the hardest part in this project.. http://i1220.photobucket.com/albums/dd447/demosta/10965486_10204694696745378_314116813_n_zp...

God i just watched the video on that thread! God i forgot how much air that RSdC 12, box, and the ti600.2 used to move! Funny remembering that flexing of the whole car that setup use to do! Im also using a 600,2ti on my subwoofer im using a focal dual coil sub, Im getting a new chip for the dqx it ...

Remember ur dqx has a built in LD too Yes i know but it got LD but i dont know what happens if i have the tba turned on max does it affect the volt thats coming out of the dqx?, i do not think i can adjust the LD on the dqx and i dont know how many volts it gives out to the amplifiers either. Im us...

I suppose a lot of people will disagree with me about this, but you really don't need more than 4V of input signal on most any amplifier out there. This is a number most modern brands shoot for, and pretty much all vintage amps can take it as well. Going up to 8V or 10V will improve your signal to ...

I tried to find info in the zx400/600ti user manual about how many volt the rca can handle, how much is the maximum voltage on the rca input on the old zx/ti amplifiers?
