    Polk PSW125 capacitors choices for a beginner.

    I was looking to repair my Polk PSW125 subwoofer plate amplifier, i've checked around the web and it seems to be a capacitors problem.

    Took apart the amp, and made a visual inspection, everything's seems fine, fuse ect no burn marks, but i noticed 3 caps that were a little bit bulged. One 400v 150uf, one 50v 47uf, and two 63v 47uf.

    I noted each caps voltages and uf anyways, and made a list on digikey. Some recommended Nichicon and Panasonics ones (FR and FM) serie. So I tried to stay with the Panasonics FM-A serie.

    I would like to know if the caps i selected are fine, or if there would be better ones for the money? Some are from FR-A, others are EB-A series.

    1x400v 150uf.
    Nichicon LGW2G151MELZ35 (LGW serie)

    3x35v 4.7uf
    Panasonics EEU-FR1H4R7B (50v instead of 35v, same capacitance, higher temp rating) (FR-A serie)

    2x35v 100uf
    Panasonics EEU-FR1V101B. (FR-A serie)

    2x50v 47uf
    Panasonics EEU-EB1H470SH. (EB-A serie)

    2x63v 47uf
    Panasonics EEU-FR1J470B. (FR-A serie)

    1x63v 10uf
    Panasonics EEU-EB1J100S (EB-A serie)

    1x63v 120uf
    Panasonics EEU-FR1J121L (FR-A serie)

    I added the digikey list.

      Polk Audio RTi100 Plate Amplifier won't power on and intermittently honks and buzzes
      by MrCommunistGen
      My childhood best friend was killed about 9 years ago. His parents are finally letting go of his things, and they offered me his Polk RTi100 tower speakers. The Polk RTi100 towers are one of a handful of designs from the early 2000s that is a full range 3-way tower with a built-in self-powered subwoofer. This is accomplished with a plate amp integrated into the speaker input panel.

      I think they used them for a while, but they've been sitting for at least a few years now. After about 40 hours of driving to their house and back (both they and I have moved in the last 9 years) I got...

      Bosch serie 6 E:60 -9 and drum not spinning
      by JakubM
      Hello everyone, I'm troubleshooting our malfunctioning Bosch serie 6 washing machine and can't find many answers online (or ones that I can make sense of). At first it started showing error E:60 -9 and would not start a program. After several restarts it's no longer showing the error codes, but when I start any program (drum cleaning for example) it fills the water in but the drum doesn't start spinning. I couldn't find any physical obstruction, but turning the drum by hand I feel resistance. I tried opening it up, trying to inspect the motor brushes. This model either has a different motor that...

      Beginner question. Did I find a short?? HP dax31mb1aa0 REV A motherboard
      by Mess

      Hi beginner here, so I'm not sure of I've done this right 😅 trying to diagnose my laptop's motherboard (dax31mb1aa0 rev a). I don't quite know how to read the schematic, so I'm attaching the pictures of the motherboard and the measurements.

      I was attempting to measure resistance to GND on inductors. I disconnected motherboard and used "continuity testing" setting on my multimeter. I put black probe to Ground & red probe on an inductor. Did I measure this right? Am I correct to think that 0.3 ohm measurement indicates a short circuit? Thank you for your help!...

      Motherboard diagnostic beginner advice
      by Mess
      To save you some time: the most important bits are in bold.
      Some further examples/explanations or to the side & in grey - you can probs skip them if it's TLDR for you. Sorry, I've got ADHD & tend to over-explain stuff - just like I'm doing right now 😅 Briefness is for poets not me 🙈

      Please help!! 🎶I'm just a girl in a world that wants to scam me out of lots of money for any tech stuff/repairs 🎵 Seriously tho, I'm poor&I can't afford to get laptop diagnosis, especially if it ends up needing a new motherboard. Where I live, all the tech shops are run by very...

      MacBook Pro A2338 liquid damage repair for a beginner?
      by dbuergi
      Hi all,

      i have a A2338 with water damage on the logic board. Cleaning it showed some heavier corrosion around U7000 and surrounding caps. Some are totally broke.
      I get 5,2v when using both USB-C Ports but until now i didn't make any more tests.
      Since i'm a beginner i want to know next possible steps. I'm not afraid replacing the intersil 9240hi but the other parts with 1mm or 2mm scare me and i don't know where to get replacements.
      I fixed other laptops but this ist my first apple device ....
