[QUOTE="B_Unit, post: 779726, member: 14304"] Hey Guys. I have an old Kenwood ka-6100 Amplifier. I bought it a while ago off ebay in very good condition. After a year I started hearing distortion on the left channel after inspection I had found the idling current on the left channel was unstable and fluctuated. After this I decided to recap the entire Amp and also found a transistor gone bad. I replaced it and then all was well until recently the distortion came back and now when I push the amplifier the protection relay cuts the connection and then reconnects after a few seconds. The amp also runs fairly hot. Could anyone suggest what could be happening or what I should begin to test. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Ubz3QN6.png[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
