    Re: 35v DC at speaker terminal!

    so i know its unbalanced and i assume thats where its failing to operate correctly, would biasing help, eg: replacing a resistor with a pot and re biasing?

      Re: 35v DC at speaker terminal!

      I forgot to mention that it started intermittently, once hot it would do this buzzing, then i left it off overnight and it had gone, it started again when it got hot and got worse

      ive ordered some parts, ill check all values of all parts inside the red box, thanks budm

        Got any freezer spray? If the problem is intermittent with heat you might be able to track it down by freezing various parts

          What is the voltage drop across R512 and also R515?

            The circuitry in the bottom left corner is difficult to make complete sense of. I dont think its
            for DC protection. Its threshold seems to be tens of volts rather than a few volts and I cant see a link to the speaker relay control.

              Re: 35v DC at speaker terminal!

              the bottom left corner on the schematic? theres an op-amp and where it says iso thats an led and photo resistor,

              or photos from the prev repair?

              the schematic on the right the relay. i think its a soft start protection? perhaps

                I am certain now that its for automatic level limiting. The OPTO LDR must tie into the signal path somewhere.
                The important point is that there is no obvious DC protection circuit.
                Only a delay for the relay and also current overload detection which is able to latch the relay off.

                  I see now. The LDR is in the amplifier's negative feedback path, clever!

                      i was trying to clean the board and pushed a corroded jumper, its snapped at the base. if this does fix it im going to replace them all with new,
                      blame a shoddy repair the first time around as i got exited and left it in a poor state, this is what the black glue does to stuff...

                        so if this was making poor contact?

                          I would be curious to see where that link is situated in the schematic to work out what exact effect it would have, being open.
                          You have yellow/brown glue there. It starts off yellow and harmless. It turns brown when exposed to elevated temperatures and moisture. It also becomes conductive and corrosive.
                          It needs to be removed. Components that are now partly corroded, mainly small glass diodes and resistors are likely to fail later.
                          It totally baffles me as to how even well know manufactures are still oblivious to the destruction that this glue causes. I have been aware of it for 30 years.
                          I have lately seen it in a Marantz and a Sony product.

                              Maybe they do know and they use it to ensure product failure. Sony certainly knows, IIRC Budm linked to an article that came from Sony which explains how the failure works.

                              Black corrosive glue is a new one on me though. Maybe people have stopped buying the white stuff so the dodgy manufacturers changed the colour!

                                well it worked, tested the sub and it sounds fine, but the mica film for the outputs slipped out and i blew the outputs.good job i ordered new ones yesterday, so ill get back on here when ive fitted the outputs, maybe tomorrow. ill let you know where the jumper went when i unscrew it all again.

                                  yea it was a complete mess anywhere theres heat+black stuff, theres corrosion, i think it took me 2 days just to clean it off with a pin

                                    I would not expect a missing insulating washer to damage the output transistors. It should only cause a main rail to short to 0V or ground through the heatsink.
                                    Be certain that the bias transistor is in thermal contact with the heatsink.

                                        Yes, it needs to sense the heatsink temperature so that it can keep the idle current bias for the output transistors correct.

                                          yes that is bolted down along with the outputs, its an mpsa13

                                            by falkikowski
                                            Hi,
                                            The LNK 606 on the power board for my active speaker just went to hell.
                                            I would like to replace it, but this very model is hard for me to get. Can I replace the LNK 606 with the LNK 616 or the TYN 266?

                                            I also attached a picture of the back side. The burnt part above R2 is a bridge, that is connected to the COM of two chunky electrolytic condensator (82 micro Farad, 400 V). I just tidied that up. Or should I worry about that?

                                            Thanks​
