missing parts

Some of the missing parts near the big caps could be the bleeder resistors. While I don't have the same amp as you, most better amps have the bleeder resistors to bleed off the power from the big caps as a safety item. That way, your caps are not storing all that energy. The diodes may be something like a 1N4007. I'm not sure about the numbers. Just guessing on the diodes, but I think thats what mine has. I'm just going by memory. I'd have to open the bottom of my amp up and see.

    Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare
    May 15, 2024 @ 14:55 UTC
    Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned
