    Definitive BP7006 Plate Amp – Powers On, No Sub Output (Need Help Diagnosing)

    Hi all — I’m trying to diagnose the plate amplifier from a Definitive Technology BP7006 tower.

    Symptoms:
    - The amp powers on (red light illuminated)
    - No subwoofer output
    - Main towers still play normally through my receiver
    - No audible hum or noise from the sub section

    What I’ve done so far:
    - Verified fuse continuity
    - Visual inspection: no burned parts
    - Confirmed speaker driver reads ~5Ω DCR
    - Board ID: LT-C126 (stamped on the PCB)
    - Cap glue confirmed factory adhesive, not leakage
    - Using a UNI-T UT210E meter (no capacitance mode)

    Questions:
    1. How can I confirm whether the problem is the amplifier board itself or the crossover / auto-on board?
    2. Which voltages should I check first on the main board?
    3. Any typical failure points for this model (BP7006) besides the small electrolytic caps in the preamp section?

    Photos:
    (I’ll attach pictures.)

    Thanks for any help — I’d love to get this one working instead of converting to passive!

    Onkyo HT-R390 no sound output, video output ok
    by FrancescoV
    Good morning everyone,
    I'm trying to repair an onkyo ht-r390 that has no sound output, despite the volume being at maximum, the rest seems to work; the video output signal (coming from an hdmi input) is present, but the audio is absent. Similar situation if I send an audio signal from any input I have no output.

    The firmware reported is the following:
    M:1.00/11107BLP
    D:?.??/????????
    O:1.00/11107AL

    The DSP firmware given the question marks seems corrupt.

    On the BCHDM-0678 - 25140678 - QPWBCHDM0678A0 board the chip that usually seems...

    NTE Electronics “NTE5251K” Zener Diode 9.1V @ 50W Do-5.5% Want to build a 9.1 output from a 9.6 lipo4 battery pack
    by sam_sam_sam
    I have bought this Zener Diode for this project what size and wattage resistor value do I need to use to get near 50 watt output
    I bought this from an eBay seller but unfortunately they only had one

    I bought three from Vetco Electronics these are Sylvania ECG5185A 9.1@10w A to Stud what size and watt resistor do I need to use to get near 10 watt output
    I bought three of from them to also make battery packs with this output power limit in mind

    I want to use this battery pack and turn it into a 9.1 output battery pack output to eliminate using 9 volt battery...

    Corsair CX750M [Model 75-002019] - burned output toroid inductor
    by momaka
    Looks like I may need a little help from the PSU experts (or anyone really! ) I have a Corsair CX750M (Model 75-002019) that I picked up for free about 4 years ago. This is the PSU:



    So here’s what’s strange about this one: it appears to work normally (normal output voltages) and any PC is stable with it. However, after a while (typically 10-20 minutes, but time can vary depending on the load), there is a sweetish smell of burned magnet wire insulation emanating from the PSU. Upon opening the PSU after this happened (many times), I was able to confirm...

    Troubleshooting PFC with SPC1012T not raising output
    by CoppellTVRepair
    It has been a long while since I posted here to ask anything....hope you can help.

    I have this Samsung power supply that uses SPC1012T as driver for the PFC and it's giving me a problem that I can't narrow down though I've troubleshooted and fixed hundreds of boards similar circuits.

    I am attaching a schematic from a different Samsung board, but the topography is very very similar if not 100% the same and it uses SPC1012T, which BTW is a pinout match to UCC28063 for which there's plenty of information. I haven't confirmed they are functional equivalents, but I strongly...

    Copper corrosion? Yamaha HS8S Audio 1 output only
    by mecha1166
    OAUD Yamaha HS8S Audio one output only.

    I have pulled the output board. Output txsistors are ok (only 2 main output). Everything measures the same on each side. Customer did not bring in speakers so I cannot go too deep. I did notice a greenish tint on the tip of the solder joints that connect to the COPPER output connectors. All 6 have a greenish tint at the tip - each side has 3 pins each. Anyone else have copper speaker output pins that corrode at the place on the PCB where they are soldered? I will try to add a photo. Thanks.
