the guy opened the amp, changed couple of identical green colored small thingies. (dont know whass that); and thats it. he shut the amp.

amp's gain is FULL now, but yes, i wd admit this the sound quality has deteorated.

do those thingies look like the green "cubes" on the left side of LBM's pic?

panky12345 · 13th August 2006, 10:50

it was the thingie with 3 legs....LBM pic's top (circled).

and bhai logon, the gain is NOT on full. its on 55-60%

Those three legged thingies in LBM's second picture are the ones that do the actual amplification... which is why it is screwed onto the heat-sink... dont think that has anything to do with thermal protection (other than generating the heat of course!!)- nor is it a part of the actual power circuitery...

GURUS... Please forgive me if the above is all crap... Just give me the "Foot-In-Mouth" Award and I'll be on my way.....!!

Sorry to have pissed you off buddy!!!..

panky12345 · 13th August 2006, 16:53

am not pissed off sir, came as a surprise....so i assume that the gain even at 25% would be same as 100%? sorry yaar, am a novice!

kb100 · 13th August 2006, 17:01

Panky... gain has been explained in earlier posts... Yes you are right... The amp can put out rated output even with gains at 25% - dont confuse the word with the meaning in this case .. GAIN here is used at the input stage to treat incoming signal.. and there is "NO GAIN" from this at the output side in most situations..

...Man I manged to sound confusing even to myself!

How you let the guy "FIX" your amp is beyond me... that too being a T-Bhp member... No offence intended. Anyway we learn from our mistakes
