a member here can probably repair the amp, message @ngen33r for info.
probably wont find a plate amp that will fit the opening on your sub without modifications... probably worth the reapir cost or just look into buying a newer sub, the sw8 is a decent small sub but there are so many more options for modern subs that will sound better.
Thanks @EpicKlipschFan! will look into repairing first if possible, though I'm no expert in electronics, nor have tools, would have difficulty following advice online. Cheers,

Hi!
My RW-8 subwoofer (https://www.klipsch.com/products/rw-8-subwoofer) apparently died. It keeps blowing new fuses ... so clearly something bad is going on inside. I will try to save it, and will open it and made a thorough inspection for parts that could be replaced (capacitors, rectifiers, etc), but meanwhile I was wondering if someone can recommend a replacement plate amplifier for this subwoofer?
Pardon my ignorance here, but the specs say the RW-8 amplifier provide 125W continuous / 270W dynamic power. Should I look for a 125W RMS replacement? I'm having a hard time finding one ... any suggestion is appreciated.
Would I damage the RW-8 cone if I install a beefier plate amplifier (e.g. a BASH 300S, as suggested here for a RW-10? https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/topic/158091-amp-replacement-for-rw-10/
Thanks in advance folks. Cheers -f

Thanks @CECAA850for the advice ... helped a lot, makes sense. Will try to repair or otherwise buy a new SW. Cheers.
