thill17 Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 I smelled that smell and decided to take out the 8" sub first and out came the smoke. I took the amp out of the back and the little transformer was extremely hot. It had only been playing for less than 20 seconds. My question is if there is any way to get another one or if I'll have to replace the whole amp plate. Or if I'm just out of luck in general. Thanks in advance to the help. This is an older SP-1 from back in around 1999-2000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malcolm Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 If the transformer failed, it is possible other components failed short and caused it. Unless you like diagnosing and fixing electronic gear, I would suggest you either replace the amp or the speaker. IIWY I would call Klipsch tech support.
