Silver Member Username: IlluminatorPost Number: 595 Registered: Apr-05 | Ok, just got this amp, but when I hook it up, these two capacitors below smoke really badly and eventually cause the amp to turn off within 10 seconds of being on. Here is a pic of the cluster and you can obviously tell which are the two caps that have been replaced and smoke: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v346/illuminator321/caps2.jpg Here is a pic of the original caps: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v346/illuminator321/caps3.jpg Here's my question: Will replacing the bad caps solve my problem, or is something else causing those specific ones to fry? I can get more pics as needed. Here's a pic of the full thing(you can see the cluster I was talking about in the middle):  |

Silver Member Username: IlluminatorPost Number: 599 Registered: Apr-05 | This might sound stupid but the replaced ones say 50V and the orginals say 63WV? What does that mean? |
