Good news! I had a call today from the repair place to say they had fixed both amps. There was a bust capacitor in the PSX which blew both the amps. You live and learn.
However, the repair chappie asvised strongly not to hook up the PSX. He could not see the benefit of it....the power supplies are the same in each.... Now, I am a noob to the advantages of the PSX, but the sound was noticably better with it hooked up (before it blew both amps of course!). He said the boards that he replaced in both amps were the last he could source, to a repeat problem would be the end of an amp in his view. But on the basis that the PSX is now repaired, surely it won't blow an amp again? He put the bust capacitor down to age - dry as he called it. He said there were 15 in the PSX and if another blew then the PSX would blow the board in the amp again. So, the dillema is, do I hook the PSX up? I have two working amps now, so I guess one could be a spare... I guess I will need to remove the two fuses in the amp before I hook up the PSX (assuming hook it up!) - repair bloke said he had put them back in. Thoughts would be appreciated!....My electrical knowledge extends to changing light bulbs....
