Hi all
I have a 350 W amplified speaker that has begun smelling bad. Apparently the
speaker works perfectly but I'm sure there's something going wrong. I've
opened it and looked at the circuitry but all seems ok, no parts burning.
Output voltage from transformer is ok. I suspect one of the four condensers.
Is there something I can try to identify the problem ?

thanks
marco

Sometimes when the caps start to fail, they can give a fish type of
odour. Change all the caps if you cannot locate the bad one. If not, and
the cap goes totally defective, then you will have an expensive repair
to do.

Does it smoke? or may be it doesn't like rock...
