TTOCS A ++

Bought two items from TTOCS one about 6 months ago and again couple weeks ago. Scott , is very trustworthy as most of you know on this site. It's nice being able to buy something and not have to worry about the seller. Thanks Scott !

Looking for a high output alternator for my 2010 Honda. Years ago there used to be a place locally that would rebuild the stock ones to make them HO. Looking on the internet , there seems to be a shit load of companies that do it.. Just looking for some good advice on brands that people have had goo...

Re: M-50 serial # m50001

As far as I'm concerned he is pretty damn good. I'm taking 3 more amps in to have him re- cap them. He is the closest to you on the West coast to boot. There is a lot of guys on this site that can do it , but you can drive to Alec's house. I usually wait till the Salmon get in at Portland then just ...

Re: AX204A smells burnt no marks on board

The board is clean , just need someone to look at it for me , I honestly think it is one of the switches inside that is failing. Is this something that tricky Ricky could fix ??

AX204A smells burnt no marks on board

I bought a AX204A off E-bay about a year ago. I waited about 4 months before i installed it ( my bad) so when I did put it in it made a high pitched ear piercing sound. I noticed a faint burn smell when I opened the package for the first time , but still I hoped for the best. Anyways , I have bought...

Re: M-50 serial # m50001

Thanks for the replies and advice. I recieved the amp , and it is a beauty. I think I will get the caps done, I have a MS 250 that needs done also , so I will get both of them done next time I head to Portland to fish. Still thinking about trading it eventually. Thanks again !!

Re: M-50 serial # m50001

Well actually that is true , but he sold this M-50 to a guy in Alabama a couple months ago , then this guy figured it was too nice to use in his install , and put it back up. Still never powered up !!! He wanted someone to have it that could appreciate it. ( which I do ) but the more I think about i...

Re: M-50 serial # m50001

We'll Alec built these amps when he was at PG , and pretty much does factory work . But I totally get what you are saying . I'm not going to put power to it, I just need to figure out what amp or amps I want to trade for it! That would be pretty cool if someone sat on this for another 9 years and ma...

Re: M-50 serial # m50001

I will definitely think about that offer for sure. I'm not the collector like a lot of people on this site. I have a lot of phoenix gold amps , but I like to use them. So trading it is definately an option for me . But if I have Alec change the caps , will that hurt the value ? It still won't have p...

Re: Leaking capacitor tutorial update

I guess I'll reply to myself ! I'm sending my amp to Alster LLC in Portland , OR , he used to work at PG when they built these amps. Don't know if anyone heard of this guy , but sounds like he is legit on all PG stuff.
