Hi! My friend just brought this audio amplifier/speaker fro his music band saying they realized its got no sound. Led powers up but there no sound at all
I opened it and found 3 board. 2 of them are for input plugs and potentiometers, and the other larger board has the amplifiers for 2 large speakers that it drives
There's also a large toroid transformer that feeds a lower voltage to the first 2 boards and a larger voltaje (36x2 rectified close to 100v) to the power board. The power board has the plugs for both speakers
There is only one signal wire connecting the first boards with the power board so I guess all sound has to enter at this plug. I applied signal to this plug and there absolutely nothing at the speakers.
I realized this amp must have been stored at a wet environment as the board has lots of traces of water
I have taken some close up pics of the water traces
Would I expect some real damage to the boards or just by removing the salt residue would I have any result?
Is there any trick you can share to remove the water salt from the board?
Any other hint on how to start?
Thanks in advance
