    M1 Active Alesis speaker schematic & advice please

    Hi all , working on my next project .

    Rebuilt PSU

    Repaired damaged print track , including through hole connections & cleaned off corrosive glue .

    Ran up the PSU via my variac , gradually increasing AC supply , but discovered Q1 ( IRF 840 ) , becoming quite hot , therefore reluctant to increase supply to full .

    Also replaced PWM chip UC3842 .

    Anyone had this scenario ?

    Why not post this in the main thread about this? The one that's stickied at the top here?

      Thanks , can do but was hoping to keep it as a separate issue , rather than mixing with other problems on the M1'S

        Replaced Q3 ( 2N5551 ) & Q4 ( 2N5401 )

        Both measured good on a cold test , therefore failing under load . Located on gate drive circuitry for Q1 , which is now running cool .

        Speaker working & on test .

          On M-Audio AV40 active studio speaker's two zener diodes get really hot.
          by Dvsr
          Hi. I need help from wiser guys. I am amateur in electronics and can't figure this out by myself.
          I bought faulty speakers, M-Audio AV40's. Other speaker has all the electronics in it and the other speaker is just passive one powered by the other speaker's amp. Original problem with the speakers was loud buzzing. I figured out that there is something wrong with the capacitors. I went ahead and replaced every electrolytic capacitor on the PCB. The caps are good quality and have the same values as the original ones.
          After replacing the caps I started testing out the speaker. It seemed...

          ART710A, RCF monitor speaker schematic/advice please
          by zen
          HI all

          It's yet another monitor speaker.

          Trying to rebuild the audio circuitry.

          The story so far, after removing loads of glue.

          MOS3 & MOS4, both type IRFB4229, S/C

          Also replaced Gate drive chip for them, U7 type IRS20955S, plus U3 which is same chip type for a different set of FETS.

          Anyone have experience working on this model?...

          NuPro A-20 Active Speaker burnt LNK 606
          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​

          Kanto YU6 active speaker power board schematic please
          by zen
          No power , with F1 ( F5A ) O/C

          There's a S/C reading from 8V rail to GND .

          R14 & R17 ( see picture ) are cooked . Need to identify them so that i can continue with repair .

          Connected in parallel , therefore most probably same value , which i suspect is going to be low .

          No info coming up on a Google search.

          Power board number PCB 160926G1...
