MPS-2500 Serial Number location?

Post by interestingfellow »

I got it 2nd hand.
Last guy had it for 8 or more years, and the idiot before him painted it with the same paint/color as his car (present company accepted if you are that idiot). I don't have the metal bottom, only the plexi (AAMP service says it should be on the "bottom" (the plate I don't have)).

I need to get an RMA and they want the serial number, but I don't know where to find it.

????
TIA.

thanks!
My serial is so close to being the model number, I just thought it was a variation of said model.

Anyway: is that what my amp is supposed to look like? yours is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy prettier than mine (even before it caught on fire). Image

and mine was white to begin with. I also don't have the screenprint on my plexi. If I can, and depending on how beat up it looks, I'm going to try to strip it down to the powder. If it's a beater, I'll strip it to the bare metal, and paint it orange.

I don´t see anything that´s wrong with your amp! It´s a late Rev. Version because it doesn´t have the Master/Slave jacks and because it has the Zero-Point wires in it. I would assume you strip it down to bare metal and paint it in whatever colour u want. mhyde71 can assist u in getting the endplates made up.

Yeah..... that pic was before it had a meltdown (and before I recapped it).
After the power supply burned up, there was carbon all over that end of the beautiful gold board. I got most of it off, except a few spots, with %91 isopropyl OH. In fact, I almost "cleaned" off the serial number by accident. I don't have an overall pic of it's current condition, but here's the end of the plexi where the fets flamed out:
Image

I need to get it cleaned up, as I plan on back mounting it in a side console box, plexi pointed out, so you can see it's guts. (Before someone has an aneurism, that console will have natural as well as forced ventilation)

I think my perception of it is influenced heavily by it's current non operative state :(
