    Pyramid PB449X blown parts

    My buddy gave this to me, said he hooked it up wrong or something. Looks like it has a blown 56Ω resistor and maybe a blown polyester cap? And then once I looked closer, saw that it has some blown power FET's (They read IRFZ46N) Of course the 30A fuse popped too. I've never worked on an amp before, what kind of state is this thing in? I'll try and get more info from my buddy who gave it to me.

    It has a TL494 controller, does that mean it's just a funky half bridge?

    Looking through my parts pile for the resistor and polyester cap first, the poly reads "102K 100V" which means 1pf 100V 10% tolerance. I have a "102J 100V" which I'm pretty sure is the same thing but 5% tolerance, is this a suitable replacement or should I keep looking? It's definitely failed

      i think that will be 1nf 100v
