  • If your monoprice 6 zone amp quit working and is presumable no longer in the 1 year warranty period, then this video is for you!
    The ceramic disc capacitors amzn.to/40L4r5l
    The 5w 10 ohm 5% resistors amzn.to/3HPdtFN
    If you dont have a soldering iron these are good amzn.to/3lrw2bL
    If you like my videos and would like to buy me a coffee feel free to do that here :) www.buymeacoff...
    If you would like to pay me to have me look at it, you can contact me at support@kztechconsulting.com please be advised that I should be considered your last resort and fixing the amplifier is not a guaranteed process. Each persons amplifier could have different issues, and may not be the exact same issue as this video.

    I don’t even own this amp but this was still a really cool video to watch

    Thank you so so much for this video. I have the same amp with the same problem. I pulled the power supply board an unfortunately all components look perfect, but via multimeter power enters this board but does not continue on to the amp stage...so something is blown. I'll prob replace the same resistor and caps that you did given it's low cost and effort, then see....thanks again!

      Oh NVM you said same symptoms lol weird yeah I would think if power doesn't continue on, something on that board has to be bad! (I would think!)

    ive got a channel out on #5 right side brand new unit .checked fuses .checked and dont see anything burnt .any ideas ?

    My amplifier stopped working suddenly. Extremely low audio comes out of the speaker (so low you have to crank up the volume and put your ear up to the speaker). I checked the boards and fuses and everything looks fine. Do you have a link to the replacement power board? I can't find one online. If that would even fix it.

    Based on the felt pads on the side of the unit, it looks like it was operated standing on its side. I wonder if that affects the cooling of the unit as the heat from the heatsinks is going to rise and go over all the other heat sources that normally would be cooling up and out the larger openings from that top plate you removed to access the internals.

    • @TheKMZ1

      That's a good point about heat rise, however my 2 soundavo units are mounted on it's side on the wall (you can see here ruclips.net/video/eOHgHG2g8aE/видео.html) and so far they are still going strong! going on year #3. So in general i would not be concerned about that. I think those little pesky creamic disc capacitors are cheap and get all the blame here!

    I was wondering if the Soundavo is compatible with Amazon Alexa?

      Yes watch the last video in my series titled whole home audio from start to finish, watch about starting 3/4 of the way through

    Hi, I just got the 6 zone home áudio passive multizone controller preamp kit, when I play something the audio is very low

      If you just got it your best bet is to exchange for a new one

    Hi, last week a storm rolled through my area and the power temporarily went out causing all the panels to shut off. When I went to turn the panels back on, the panles would be blue but would not turn back on. One of the control panels does not come on at all (no blue light). The amplifier is on but I can not turn on ANY of the panels. Also the itach thats connected to it doesnt work either (cant turn the panels on VIA app). Can you help me with this? Thank you.

      I have the exact same problem.
      Itach not working. Unit powers up. I see power going to the key pads but none of the zones will turn on.
      This was after a series of storms and days without power.

      @billycooper6924 thanks for the coffee and email, i'll be emailing you back today!

      @kooljazz2216 i could crack it open and take a look but there's no guarantees! Let me know if you'd like to mail it to me as a last resort.

      Same issue here, everything has power, lights on amp and keypads, but zones don't turn on.

    Hey I have same Monoprice amp, I’m getting a buzzing on all the zones and speakers with and without audio playing. I reseated all the connections and still continued. I unplugged all inputs then there’s no buzzing/humming, but as soon as I connect any input the buzzing is back on. Any idea what could be causing that? Any help would be great!

    Would have been nice to see the guts of the other amp that’s $1000+ more than this one with the “same” components.

    • @TheKMZ1
      @TheKMZ1  Год назад +1

      "the same" major components, including that power board in particular. It has 2 linkplay streaming modules installed and 1 rs232 to Ethernet adapter to allow it to be controlled over the network with the app. With my discount code the soundavo amps are only a little more expensive still... About $300 to $400. So if these added components and better warranty and support are worth it then the soundavo amp is the better decision
