Hi.
I should know better by now to not attempt any hifi modification or repair I I the wee small hours!
I recapped my goodmans magnums last night and once plugged in, it all sounded much improved, until, fuzzy distortion for a few seconds then POP!
I feared it was something a is with my armature handiwork, although I triple checked the job for any shorts. I did notice that there were a couple of breaks in the blue and red sheathing of the speaker cables exposing bare copper, and the way they were connected, it looked as though they could have been touching.
The short of it is ( pun intended ) the amp is no longer putting out signal. Does anyone know if the fuses next to the speaker protection fuses are for protecting the amp from any late night misdoings etc?
any help would be very much appreciated.
thanks, Dave
