the white box outline on the board that goes around both the resistors says R307

the white box that goes around the one output filter that burned up says C100

and the box that goes around the other output filter says C101

The resistors are 4.7 ohm 5 watt ceramic type, the other number mean nothing as I don't have a schematic. Thats why I need the numbers on the burnt items themselves. the other numbers your giving me are location numbers and would apply if I had schematics. Sorry I need more info from the burnt item themselves :(

i think i am confused on the names of all of these.
i need all that is circled in this picture

R307: are The two resistors that are 4.7 kohm 2 watt ceramics

C100, and C101: are 5.6 microfarad 250 volt Metal film capacitors

right?

OK the burnt resistors are 4.7 ohm 5 watt ceramic
the capacitors are 5.6 ufd at 250 volts metal film

thats it I though you were talking about the little orange ones hope this helps C :)

update

i was able to get 2 new resistors in town, but still can't find the Metal film capacitors.
well i went to go change the resistors out in the meantime, and once i took the old ones off, i cleaned the board under them, and is is melted, bubbling up, and has a few pieces missing. so i am not even going to try fixing it now, i will just buy a new amp in 2 weeks.

i tried to get pics of the damage, but they are just to blurry to see.

i will start a new thread showing my whole system when i get the new amp.

thanks for the help

Sorry to hear that, maybe sending it in to PG directly is an option??? You might want to give them a call and see what they can do for you. :?
