    Kicker zx650.4 weak channel

    I have a kicker zx650.4 (rev2.0 2008) with a weak channel that I would love to fix, any idea on where to start?

    maybe by uploading a straight shot hi res pictures and a schematic if you have one.

      No schematic yet, but I will try to find one.

        you got an oscilloscope? if not, can you borrow one? First I would probe the input stage to see if the unbalance occurs there. Any strange noises? How weak are we talking about?

          I do not have an O'Scope, I am considering getting a mini pocket one like the dso 201 or dso nano v3, if thoes wont work I can ask my friends dad who has a real scope if I can borrow it.

            Oh and the difference as measured by a db meter phone app is approx 6-10db.

              So there is quite a bit of difference then. You need to input a test signal with either generator or hookup a computer with a sound card. Then measure the gain through each op amp and go through the stages. don't forget to check the input and output of the variable resistor that sets the gain. Nice thing is one channel is working 100%. So you can compare between them. Good luck!

                old X58 triple channel board... memtest86 memory speed?
                by eccerr0r
                Anyone run memory speed tests with an old X58-based triple channel 1st gen or any other >2 channel board? The one I have is a Gigabyte I think.

                Anyway I had four 4GB DDR3-1333 modules in the 6 memory slots and got around 11GB/sec memory speeds assuming that it went dual channel since it didn't have enough modules for triple channel. Now I stuck in two more 4GB modules, but they are DDR3-1600. I'm still getting 11GB/sec speeds according to memtest86...

                Just wondering, anyone do memory speed analysis on these triple (and higher) channel memory boards? Are there any...

                Reverse engineering of 18650 4-channel tester
                by spleenharvester
                Hi friends

                I have reverse engineered this tester, schematic is attached and is complete except for capacitor values. These testers annoyingly have no model number but they are the ones you find on the first page of just about any website if you type in "18650 4-channel tester". There is also a 2-channel variant and a newer 8-channel variant. They are very cheap (about £15) and can measure voltage, current, internal resistance and capacity. They have a multicolour display for all these statistics. They also have terminal blocks so that if you want to use a breakout board...

                American Audio VLP1500 Distorting on one channel
                by dicky96
                Hi guys I have a VLP1500 amplifier here - one channels works fine and the other channel distorts even at low volume settings

                Protection and Clip LED are off

                There is something wrong with the BIAS voltages around T16 and T18 (in particular) on the bad channel

                I tested all diodes and transistors in this area in circuit with diode mode - both channels seem identical. Same in resistance mode across all the resistors here.

                The output DC voltages on pin1 and pin8 of the 5532D dual op amp at the input of each amplifier module are the same, and the audio...

                Hitachi V19B01922 Channel Tune problem
                by dicky96
                Hi Guys
                I have a customer who has two Hitachi TVs in his bar, one is the model in the thread title and the other is a larger screen but has the same setup menu

                He also has an LG TV, so three screens in the bar

                I installed three Satlink ST-6503 DVB-T Modulators
                This model https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32916553905.html

                These connect to three satellite receivers via HDMI cables and then connect to a 4 way RF Amp that connects to the TVs on aerial cable. There is no incoming terrestrial antenna. I set the channel ID on the modulators to...

                Marantz pm 6005 right channel not worknig
                by sima112
                Hi guys,
                I need a help with my Marantz pm6005. It started to have weaker the right channel a few months ago, than it got back to normal and now it has lost sound completely on the right channel. At the final stage it was loosing the channel for a while and than it returned. After it has disappeared completely I could forced it back by unplugging the source form CD (which I normally use) to phone and back. It would then work for a few minutes and died again. Now it is possible power up and all function works normally (apart the right channel ) on all inputs, except the phone both channel...
