Few things ... mind the polarity on electrolytics. You should post what values those 4 caps were. And while you were in there probably should have replaced the other electrolytics on the boards. thanks for sharing this info and not making it a painful 20 min video.
I'm the very first one that came up with this fix on my old channel. The values are 6800uf 25v. It's not necessary to replace the other caps. Mine just went again & I replaced them this time it didn't completely fix the problem. After re-capping the entire board except for the 1 NP on the MB & 2 NP on the daughter board the driver still works but the tweeter drops out. The other cap values are (Not including the 3 NP caps) 6 - 22uf 25v 2 - 1uf 50v 3 - 10uf 50v 2 - 100uf 16v 1 - 220uf 16v
Hey man nice video! I have some BX8 monitors…. One powers up for a second, the the light and speaker turn off, and nothing happens 😣 going to try fix this week
I have an interesting inquiry, how do you build an ab switcher that receives commands from an external device via TRS? I'm trying to build a box that has a signal split on the right that would go into two preamp inputs, then have their FX send come back into a ab switcher and out as a mono, and then stereo in to stereo out back into the FX returns of the amps just for ease of routing 6 cables. Why do this? I use a BOSS ES-8 and it has a handy always on send with a return BUT it doesn't support running this to two amps because it's mono. By doing this I'll be able to choose between two different preamps simply by using the ab return and sending the bypassed amp a signal into the FX return to use it's power amp and vice versa. It would be a HUGE game changer for me and many other players who don't even know this is an option. It also wouldn't hurt to have a MIDI in/out for use with an external controller. Also to have a single split on it's way out for a device that only has a MIDI in (digitech whammy, I'm looking at you!!!) would be supreme.
Hi, i replaced my capacitors both speakers, but the other pair still has a low ouptput volume compared to the other one and still has the popping noise when turned on, tje other one is like brand new after replacing the caps, what could be the problem? Thanks
Can we discuss this further? I have a pair of these and they have always given a loud thump when powered up. Now one of them sounds like the tweeter is blown but there is no visible damage. Could this be from faulty assembly from the start?
