SAE XXXIB
Hi. I have a couple SAE XXXIB amps that work fine but have been told they could probably use a rebuild for best results so I¡¯m wonder what typically needs doing. As I say they are working but

Re: input voltage drop in amplifiers
A typical linear power supply powered audio amp (!00% SAE) consist of a transformer, bridge rectifier and huge energy storage capacitors which provide two functions. 1) Smooth the rectified DC into

Re: SAE A105 Sub amp
20-200Hz range does not answer the question. It could well be the upper frequency limit of the amp for all I know. The question of the crossover frequency which is a single frequency value. It is the

Re: SAE A105 Sub amp
The SAE A105 subwoofer amp is a re-badged DBX XB140 unit. According to the owners manual, the frequency response is 20-200Hz @ 70WRegardsJim

Re: SAE A105 Sub amp
A non response typically mean no one knows. But If I had to guess, it would be someplace between 80 and 120 Hertz. A105 was made long after the SAE we normally talk about went out of business. It was

Re: input voltage drop in amplifiers
Hi Rob, I believe Jim¡¯s reference to AC is a Air Conditioning unit. If I am wrong then I would like to know the answer. The power drop in voltage that the Air Conditioning unit draws ( unfortunately

Re: input voltage drop in amplifiers
By input, I assume you mean 120 Vac power input. I would expect the AC power line voltage to drop momentarily when you turn the amplifier on as there is considerable inrush current to charge the main

Re: input voltage drop in amplifiers
If I read your message correctly you are asking the effects of a power line sag. The root cause for this is the innate resistance of the wiring in your home coupled with the high inrush current

Re: input voltage drop in amplifiers
No, this is a result of the load drawn by the amp as the filter capacitors charge. You'll probably also find the input voltage drops as the overall volume level (power drawn) increases. Low line

input voltage drop in amplifiers
Hi AllHopefully I am able to articulate my question in a manner that makes sense. When an amplifier running and has an input 120 volts and then the a/c comes on and the ampplifier input voltage drops

SAE A105 Sub amp
I recently purchased an SAE A105 sub amp and am wondering at what point it crosses to the sub, does it roll off the mains and how much input power is needed for proper operation. Thanks

Re: P101 or P102
The P101 suffers from relays that did not have gold plated contacts. Connection goes intermittent after some time. If if you managed to clean the relays and restore contact, the problem will return.

Background: I have a P101 that I took in years ago for a non working tape monitor. The tech thought he fixed and told me "by the way I found a bad ground and fixed it" He didn't fix the tape monitor,
