Posted April 30, 200817 yr Here's my old school Alpine MRV-F352. I used this for about 2.5 years or so and one day the 5th channel when out. The other four-channels still work fine. I've sent a few pics of the damage. Could some one tell me what I should do with this amp. I don't really need it anymore, but I don't think many people would want a 5 channel amp that only has 4 channels that work. The damaged part is in the upper right hand corner. You can see the burn marks just under the model number.Closer pic of the damageVery close image of the damageI don't know very much about amp internals, Would this be a quick and inexpensive fix, or is it just not worth the effort. Thanks!
April 30, 200817 yr looks like the FET's I replaced in one of my old amps. You can buy them online for a dollar or two and replace them in 27 seconds with a soldering iron.
April 30, 200817 yr Could also send pictures to Chris at dB-r. See how much he would quote you to fix it.

April 30, 200817 yr I forget which place I ordered from. digi-key.com is a place Josh Laine recommended a few years ago that I remember. I think I ordered from Electronics Source, http://www.es.co.th
