Jan Cumps Those have nice TO66 outputs.

I recently bought class-d amp based on the TPA3116, runs on a dollar store power bank, or higher power usb-c PD adapter.

Compared to your amp, it has no soul. Neat technical achievement though.

It has new soul. I 'm a class-D design fan.

Hello 

i would start by spraying switches and pots with DEOXIT D5,

Has this been used on a regular baises, if NOT power it up (with a 100w lamp in series with the ac power input) for few hours.at low volume 

if it has noisey transisters in the output stage or tone controls the lamp will stop descruction of output stage

most of the time i found noisey transisters were the small PNP ones

if one channel has more gain than the other when in mono  then start looking for caps in tone and power amp circuit

i think this is only the baby model the big ones had 4 channel for BI wire or external Quad box 

if someone wants to start compairing class A or B amps to class D please start another thread

That's the plan

It's in daily use

It has no issues except for noisy switches and pots. i serviced it about 10 years ago.

Yes, it was the low power, low budget model of their range at the time.

Jan Cumps DeoxIT Fader F-Series is preferred for pots.

I have ordered two products that somewhat perform similar effect. I normally have them in stock, but these cannisters don't last when they are half empty.

I'm lucky (or I chose wisely ;) ) that my receiver doesn't have faders.
I haven't had a real good experience with cleaning faders, and have them behave as new. The Deoxit product, and the combination I have above, do a reasonable task. They resolve the scratchiness - and give a somewhat satisfying feel. But never that original smooth ride...

I have a Scott 370R that I bought in 1980. I rewired the ON - OFF switch so it stays ON all the time. I use a switched outlet strip to power the system. All the switches all need hosed down with contact cleaner.  The Scott receiver doesnt have the balls to drive my Bose 601s, so the receiver feeds a 100W a side Carver magnetic amplifier. I noticed the highs dont seem as bright lately, most likely its my hearing that is degrading.

Jan Cumps That's why you should use DeoxIT Fader F-Series.
