PV 2600, couple years old, light usage.
Connected to two PV SP3K speakers.
One channel started to cutout somewhat but not all the way, Switched a few input cables, swapped L&R. Then whole amp shutdown. Breaker would not function.
Reconnected speakers and inputs to my Crown backup amp. Everything worked fine all night w backup.
Got unit home, ran all night last night, without a load or inputs.

- No dust, This thing is cherry, SKB covered when not in use. Input outputs clean. Where would flex cables be? I don't see any on exterior. So don't let the amp run with no load connected?
Neutrik, and they worked fine when I did emergency swap to my Crown backup.
Thanks Petraman7
I've worked on similar units. Things I'd check first : Dust in the unit. Weak solder connections /crusty debris stuff on the input jacks or output terminals Any flex cables soldered in tend to be a problem on peavey amps I resolder all those contacts. Checking the amp w/o a load IS NOT a good suggestion. What style output connections are you using? 1/4 inch, binding post, or Neutrik style?

- The flex cables are internal to the unit. Most of the time resoldering places where connectors meet circuit board clears up problems as well as the power supply areas.
I would find out from your fave music store who does repairs and have them look at it

nad 304 amplifier no output, relais not is willing to engange. No smoked components, no blown fuses, believe that the protection circuit is malfunctioning or some signal is not OK. 1 time it engaged, but fall off again. Regards, Marc From Freezing Holland
