Phoenix Gold Phorum

Not sure what happened but the basscube I got is dead. It has power although the light is a little dim. I have tried 2 different remotes, different cables(both phone and rca) but I get no output from it. I have a meter, actually just ordered a silly-scope is there anyone out there that can help me try and fix it myself?

Is it the black one or the white one that's not working properly? I sold the white one and you two were going to swap cubes.

its my black one your white one is fine.

yea the black one probably got thrown by the shippers or something, I am sure it was not sent like this to begin with and he has even offered to swap them out. Either way we still need to get this one fixed. i touched up some cold solder ponts that I hoped were stopping it but no luck.

Power light is ON???

OK, may want to open it up and check around real good for anything out of the ordinary . Sux ass if shipping caused the damage and have been in that boat before . Hope it works out and ya get the cube up and runnin'.

I already took a look inside and I do not see any burned traces or anything else that looks outta place. There was a high powered resistor that had a cold solder joint that I touched up but it still didn't help any.

i would look very closely at the power supply section you know the area surrounding the power torriod mostly if the resistors are discolored they could be blown. but sometimes you cant see if its bad from the top i knew a electronic repairman in the military that said a resistor can sometimes have a burnt spot on the bottom and be impossible to see from the top but still be bad. also the diodes in that section protect it from when someone hooks it up backwards they will blow before everything else gets fubar the thing is its harder to see if their bad buy just looking at them hope this may help a little.

dvnt88 you had the white one packed so well i just repacked it with the black one. even if it does not start working finding a replacement one should not be hard since i have a remote.

i just called AAMP about repair and was directed here http://www.altser.com/ . i was told he is a former PG employee and does all the work on the eq's. it says its $58 for the cube repair so if you want to send it off ill pay.

Hello guys www.altser.com it's me.

what a way to make an entrance to the forum! Is that $58 to look at repairing it or 58 to fix it?

$58 to fix it. (Bass Cube only)

they have a flat rate listing just like PG.

Hey - I contacted you about the Xenon 200.4 on E-bay and you never sent the pictures . Did you sell the amp?

you guys fixed my m50

man it is an unfortunate situation that happened as I was doing the favor of letting you have the white one you wanted. I guess it is just the perfect example of no good dead goes unpunished....

I hate to make you pay for the repair, and on the other hand I paid enough that it would be understood that it should be a working unit. Not sure what to do to make it right.
