If Sound Guys would stop buying D-class than the Resellers would STOP selling it....D-class is non-repairable JUNK.....I have a large pile of Dead D-class Amps and Plate Amps with the local Metal Scrap Yard offering 8 Cents USD a pound....$8.00 per 100 Pounds Weight....

Haha, yes - you'd need a truck load of Class D blown amp modules to get anything from a scrap yard. They're far too light to be worth bothering... A few weeks ago, a friend replaced a blown amp in one cab he had with one of these:- He was initially really chuffed at finding such a cheap replacement - and told me that it seemed to be great and sounded fine. It lasted about 2 gigs, then blew up. The last powered cab I had here for repair was a Thomann thing. Amp module completely fooked. They wanted 200€ for a new module. The owner agreed with me - just stick in a passive xover & use and external amp. It is still working fine several months in. The only powered cabs I have are a couple of old JBL EON15 G2's. Maybe 20 years old and still going strong. I don't see any of the modern stuff doing that. And definitely nothing as simple to repair as the EONs. |

Still got one here, I haven't heard from the client recently, he went very quiet when I told him the price of the replacement module and I hope he's alright..

Not sure he'd be impressed.
An icepower unit would be more suitable I suppose. |

Yes, but those can be pretty pricey as well. No easy way out of the problem - other than turning the cab passive! |
