Parts Question Repairing amp for cambridge sw basscube 12s
Hello,
Well my subwoofer went out, reading around found info on how to repair so I opened up and found this
**broken link removed**
What I expected based on what I had read, caps bad and took resistor and diodes.
I have the diodes figured out. Question on the caps and resistor.
The caps I found are rated at 2000 hours@ 85c . I had read something about the original one being cheap and using better replacements. Is that good enough to use?
The resistors are really giving me problems.
**broken link removed** The resistor is the one on the left starts at the one inch mark
The color code is red black red gold . I think that is 2k ohms. When I put a meter on them one reads 1.4k and the other about 1.2k . There is a larger one marked 1k ohm and it reads right on.
So am I right that the resistor is 2k ohms and the bigger question how do I tell the wattage of the resistor?
I found the caps and diodes at digikey but no such resistor are there any better sources?
Thanks for any assistance!
Frank
