As somebody who both uses various brands of powered speakers in live sound applications, as well as fixing them when they break, I just wanted to mention that the lots of screws / lots of silicone glue thing is intended to prevent vibration damage when playing at full volume, as well as hopefully protect from the inevitable tumbles and rough handling that happen to musical equipment on the road. Also, on this particular speaker, the back plate is forming part of the speaker enclosure, so ideally it should not flex or leak air when the speaker is used a high volume levels. The only way to achieve that is with lots of screws, or by molding a sealed chamber in the back where the amp module can live in peace. Alto chose "lots of screws". I was surprised, and pleased to see that the amp module uses discreet MOSFETs on such an incredibly cheap powered speaker. Most manufacturers in this price range use the TDA8953 / 8954 amp on a chip, which is complete chintz in my opinion. And of course it should be obvious, but I'll say it anyway... there is no way on this earth, or in any other universe that this is a 2000 watt amp. Based in NDA service manuals for similar products, we might expect something in the 200 watt RMS range. It appears from your video that they use different MOSFETs on each channel, so perhaps 30-50 watts RMS on the compression driver, and around 150 watts on the woofer. Usually, manufacturers use the same amp board across the different sizes of speakers (10", 12" & 15") in a series, and they program the DSP to deliver the amount of power appropriate for the size of the woofer. If the series has a subwoofer in it, some companies will choose to use the same MOSFETs & inductors on both channels, then either use a dual voice coil driver in the sub, or design the amp so it can be put in bridge mono mode to feed a single voice coil sub - the old QSC KW family does the latter. The compression drivers are nearly always the exact same part across all sizes in the series. Good video sir, always fun to see what is inside other brands I've never had a chance to crack open.

Those are Chinese watts. Their exact relation to the regular watts is unknown, as it is a classified and strictly protected state secret and a property of CCP, but the approximate conversion ratio, as figured out by the generations of engineers, ought to be about 10-15%. The half-bridge topology of the power supply, the size of the transformer and the two 470uF 180V caps in series suggest that the output power is indeed in the region of 200VA. Whether they use ICs or discrete MOSFETS, D-class amps are utter rubbish regardless.

Lucky you Mark, I have been servicing this brand for many years and I am sick and tired of them. Few are the cases of such an easy problem. Not to mention the least of support from the manufacturer. I take the chance to introduce myself. I have been on the service market for over 35 years now. I got to you randomly and, since then ( a few weeks ago) I am trapped on your videos, why? I thought I was a man from another planet but, since I discovered you, I know that there are other technicians who use the old school methods, to me the only reasonable and logical ones, but not for most of the people out there. Watching you servicing is like looking into a mirror, rather than a screen, for the way you work and I like what I see. Greetings from Tenerife and sorry for my english

Los pitidos en amplificadores suelen ser, de forma general, problemas de oscilación por fallos en la red zobel o, posiblemente, algún problema en los previos. Pero es algo que no he tenido, hasta ahora, con ningún módulo de este tipo.

Hey Mark, as a test and repair tech that used to work for Citronic, (when they had their factory in Melksham in Wiltshire), I am finding your videos very reminiscent of the time I spent fixing audio gear. I now work in IT, but keep my hand in as a DJ (another reason I worked ay Citronic). I have a pair of TS115A's which had intermittently dropped output to the bass speakers. Inspired by your video, I ventured to have a go at fixing these & and... success! I have never worked on Class D stuff before so I was quite wary of doing it. Time to fix one cabinet was about 2 hours especially after trying to remember how it all went back together again (used the other speaker as an aid memoir!). It was dry joint s galore. Lead free solder is pants! Thanks for the videos, it is quite cathartic watching someone else do all the work!

Wow a Citronic engineer, somehow I became a mobile DJ at my 6th Form for a few years. My first setup, I built two shell Citronic belt driven turntables into an MDF box, bought variable sliders from Maplin to change the speed to the motor, and added a reverse switch too for fun. Could just about beat match on them but wo and flutter was terrible on a £50 deck😆. Moved to Soundlab direct drives as couldn't afford Technics SL1200'S so wish I had though then.

@ Citronic originally used Garrard SP25’s in their consoles when I joined the company. The big consoles started having Technics turntables fitted, but not SL1200’s, but I can’t remember which models exactly. The then went to Garrard ‘Disco Drivers’ for the small consoles and SL1200’s for the premium consoles, but issues with availability meant they went to BSR’s and then their own branded decks. I actually preferred the disco drivers to the BSR’s and could beat mix by braking one deck by pinching the centre spindle and ensuring the BPM’s were similar by a good knowledge of the music. They were good days, a long time ago now!

As adioflyer2030 stated the amplifier is actually around 200 watts and not 2000 watts as stated on the encloser, to many company's are stating unreal wattages on their products. One way to tell is if it doesn't say RMS after the wattage, for instance '200 Watts RMS'. If it doesn't have those 3 letters divide the wattage by 10 and that will give you a true wattage, so 2000 divided by 10 = 200.

He is highly skilled and i believe could fix just about anything with current in it. I just have to get over the fact that he passes on the company lies like that when even a child knows better. Mark this is for you: I suggest calculating these numbers in the future for you viewers to compare to the utter bs from companies.

Don't need the headache of fixing it, only for the customer to bring it back a month later with another fault! They're not a bad sounding speaker, just not very reliable it seems. And 2000 Watt? Nearer 200 than 2000 I'd say, don't know how these Chinese manufacturers get away with such bare-faced lies on their specs...

I have been repairing domestic and professional audio for 45+ years, and I won't touch ANY of this modern china junk. It's just not worth my time or my reputation. The boards are a nightmare to work on, the copper tracks lift off if you even look at them and getting replacement components (if you can even work out what they are) isn't easy or even possible in some instances. China gets away with making rubbish and telling lies because people keep on buying their junk. If people boycotted it and refused to buy it, there would be no market and hopefully they'd stop making it. Also there is no way to stop china telling lies on their products - who are you going to complain to?

Alto is part of the Inmusic group in the USA. Designed in the USA and built in the orient. I agree that built in China is not a great label to have. That is why Ashdown’s top range tube bass amplifiers manufacture was returned to the UK, for better quality control. Japan, South Korea and Indonesia seem to be good for high quality instrument manufacture, so I would hazard a guess that electronic manufacture might well be if a similar high standard. It appears that power supplies made in China often suffer from parts being removed from the build AFTER attaining CE certification for the design in order to cut build costs (they remove RF filtering components to save money). The result is RF noisy psu’s which interfere with radio receivers and pollute the radio spectrum. They are a bloody menace.

Hi Mark, I tried to fix my AKAI Amp after it getting wet and it probably only had a minor fault but in the process I didn't recognize the drain of the transistors were connected to the metal heatsink on them. So it came like it had to and when taking out the board, I touched the heatsink with the metal thingy and it made a small smark between heatsink and transistor (seems like caps weren't drained). The power fuse ( 2.5A on the other side of the board) blew immediately. What do you think I should do? Is it possible that only the fuse blew or should I look for other faults on the board?

That speaker is NOWHERE near 2000 Watts of power output, what with absolutely no heatsink and fan, an idiot could work that one out.

Any chance you’ve had a look at any TS412/415’s? Can’t seem to find anybody doing a tear down or similar to see what the guts of it is like…

Did you check the woofer before you started tearing the amp apart?

For once, I think we could see the cracked solder joint better than you could. It was so clear it could have been magnified.

Love your channel, Mark. Whats the Blue material you are using for your work surface? I have a black Anti Static material, which was a nice idea, but heat sink compound makes a hell of a mess on the black. Ive got to change it for something that can be cleaned easier!!

Have you measured real power of the amps? I really dont believe that it has even 1000W in total. Maybe closer to 500W. But dont have such speaker so cannot do that.

Based on the board it looks like there might be IRS2092 chips, with capacitors rated at 63V and even with 4ohm speaker it can take max 300W per woofer LOL

I presume you shorted the capacitors off camera before you opened the power supply?

I've got an Alto TS115. I've run it pretty hard for several years and I think it's had it tbh, but basically, after being run for more than 20 or 30 mins, it loses all it's bass and mids really. I'm wondering if this is the same problem? Would it be delayed if it was this part?
