If you want to dig deeper and "tune" them, you can't "wing" it like we did with the power supply filter caps. You KNOW the drill: if they're designed for bridging, strap them and make an "empirical determination." Since I have two, would I be better off strapping them and running one on each side? I have printed them out and will be reading up on this as I await the delivery of the caps I've ordered. I can't be sure of that, but it seems logical to me. I can't help but think there are other folks here who are interested in this as well and may therefore be learning right along with me.
I really, really want to learn how to fix these things and this seems like a prime opportunity for me to do that. It would cost me more than that for a tech to source the parts and fix it and then I still wouldn't know any more than I do now. I can buy these amps on ebay all day long for $150-$200. The tech I took the first one to, made a couple of calls and was told that the parts were NLA and that was as far as he was willing to go. I have almost no investment in these amps and to be honest, given the availability of parts, it really takes someone like myself, who is willing to hunt them down, to get one fixed. That's probably sound advice, however, I've been wanting to learn this stuff for a long time. This is a used item and carries no manufacturer warranty unless stated otherwise.Do yourself a favor, and find a good tech shop and have the amps repaired properly, or give Hafler a call, and send it to them for overhaul!
