Refurbishing A ZX950

Post by **Eric D** » Wed Oct 17, 2012 2:56 am

This is a project I have been working on for a few months now for a forum member. Aside from the obvious cosmetic issues, the boards turned out pretty nice, and now both work as they should...

Very nice work! Sad u won´t see any of it, once the cover is back on the amp. I bet kg will be more than happy with the amps performance, once he´ll install it.

Eric, or anyone else for that matter, where do you get your terminal screws? The only ones I can find are on ebay and I've no way to know if the price they're being sold at is a good deal. I'd like to buy bulk, ~50, maybe 100.

Also, I'm looking for a 5 post terminal strip. It needs to be either 1 of 2 types.

A 5 post exactly like the PG 4 posts on the ZX series amps, or (this one more so) a 5 post exactly like the LANZAR Opti amps from the mid '90s.

Thanks

You can contact Valeks1 ( http://www.altser.com/ ) . I belive he`s the one selling on the bay too...

He is a former tech at Phoenix Gold, so he knows the brand good.

All of my parts are used parts from other amps. I have not come up with sources for new parts on these amps. (Wish I could though).

The shop that did the fresh powder coating, do they have the graphics for our amps on file? want my zx450 and zx500 repowdercoated and the graphics put back on them.

Sadly, no I don't. Just imagine enough dust and grime to not be able to see all the heatsink parts, and fans so plugged they would hardly spin.
