I was just wondering what could have possible caused this problem. Overdriving the amp by playing at high volumes?
Does anyone know what is the fault of the amplifier if one(1) speaker shows a slight distorted sound when music is playing, and there's a very slight smell from that amp of something burning or cooking?
That’s a dangerous assumption and resistors only usually fail when an excessive current is drawn across them.Post photo!
likely to be a failed resistor
almost certainly a cheap fix
What I mean is that if you do spot a burned resistor and just change it without investigating further, there’s a good chance it’ll fail again and do further damage. As I say, they usually fail for a reason. An output device can fail without blowing fuses or stopping the affected channel producing sound, it’ll sound bad of course. Something could also be at fault before the output stage. It really needs to go to a proper workshop.It’s not an assumption it’s a guess and I can’t think of any immediate danger from taking a photo with the power off.
if a semiconductor had failed its usual for an amp to blow fuses and it’s unlikely (not impossible)to make any sound at all.
burning smell is normally associated with resistors and they often give a visual as well as olfactory indication.
It will be interesting to see what the diagnosis is!
