The 5 kilowatt Crown

[@MendItMark]

UPDATE: So I’m running a 3-part LIVE workshop that takes us on… A Time Travel Through Vintage Electronics. We’ll rewind the clock, dive into the tech of the times… (and study the very history of how things were broken and repaired has evolved) The workshop is coming soon, but if you're reading this then you're in luck (or not)... And there's still time for you to sign up using the link below: www.menditmark.com/mend-mark-workshop The workshop dates are mentioned in the link above too.

You had me until the DIY turn your own Knobs !!!, LOL!, ex TV/Video/Audio/Radio Communications etc etc etc serviceman here, Ive repaid high powered PA amps before , but never resorted to machining my own replacement Knobs !!! , wow ! I take my hat off too you sir! :), cheers from Australia.

[@garybenning1771]

Overall I consider you a great engineer BUT, you regularly use wayyyy too much heat transfer compound. You're only supposed to use a light enough smear to level out and fill surface imperfections. The amount you use will noticeably worsent heat transfer. From a long term engineer too.

[@gummansgubbe6225]

I am starting to wonder why Philips screws is a thing at all. I have fallen in love with JIS.

[@TassieLorenzo]

@@gummansgubbe6225 Canadians love Robertson! Older JIS are a little harder to cam out than older Phillips, but since the standards were standardised (lol) in 2008 there should be very little difference between crosshead screws and screwdrivers made to the unified DIN standard from 2008 regardless of whether they are Japanese or European screwdrivers. Screwdrivers made to that are supposed to be reasonably backwards compatible with older JIS screws (though Japanese screwdrivers still seem to fit a little better). it seems like some of the American crosshead screwdrivers (like Snap-On) still don't fit JIS screws that well though.

[@zvotaisvfi8678]

i don't know man. seems like the previous guy had it all figured out, He just didn't have money and time and energy to track down potentially expensive, oddball parts, or time, not to mention, probably an unusually high powered device. If you don't have an expenditure budget as a tech, sometimes it's just not worth it, if you're broke, to go ask for $100 in parts, now the guy is waiting on you, don't know if its just the outputs or if something else caused the failure, hopefully it was just a user error, causing the least damage, etc. Doensn't mean the previous tech is a cowboy, genius.

[@zvotaisvfi8678]

like just think about it are you going to to beg for cash from the customer to spend hours get rare expensive parts, wait weeks for them, then say "Oh shoot, well, I need to get one more fiddly little part we have to wait 2 more weeks to get this last part in..." see what I'm saying meanwhile the previous tech has a shop full of people banging down his door on much more pedestrian devices. edit and then lastly, he's already a couple few good hours juggling this thing apart... "Hey man, we got you started on this thing..." and he loses a few hours on it, but saves a week. See what I'm saying. Not to mention, the client probably showed up and says "Dude I desperately need this working , how much do you think it will cost? 80 or $100?" because everyone thinks "its just a loose wire inside." meanwhile the first tech is looking at prices and all this on all the potentially iffy parts , and is like, "well. its gonna be $120 in parts after shipping just to see what else is broken with it." and honestly, it could be the customer's fault more than anything, for thinking someone's time is worthless, or not appreciating the time and effort "The cowboy" invested to get that far. And though I agree, the thing looks like an absolute clusterF, I am sure the notes and previous activity gave Mark a bit of a clue as to where to look rather than just opening this thing up and it literally looks factory new now you're really digging for clues, and that is where you loose time, which "the Cowboy" already paid for with the time in his life.

[@Jon_Pearl]

Crown International was started by a broadcast engineer and ham radio operator by the name of Clarence Moore (W9LZX). Clarence got his start in short-wave broadcasting in the high mountains of Quito Ecuador at radio station HCJB. In the 1970's when Clarence was back in the U.S., I was fortunate enough to talk to him on the ham bands as a kid in my late teens. He was the inventor of the Cubical Quad antenna, and I just so happened to have one. Naturally, our conversation drifted to antennas, and he was delighted to hear that mine was a Quad. He was a vast book of knowledge, but at the time I had no idea that he was the guy who'd invented the antenna to combat coronal discharge in the rare atmosphere of HCJB's antenna site in the mountains of Pifo Ecuador. It wasn't until he had cleared off of the frequency that we were talking on, that another ham told me who he was. I was a lucky teenager to work that father of the Quad and later the owner of Crown International. RIP, Clarence. de W4ABC...

[@DaftFader]

Yeah them crown amps are a thing of marvel! If I ever have the choice of any amp vs crown, I always go crown as their reliability is unparalleled imo. Cool to have some backstory to the original owner/inventor of crown amps! ta.

As a retired electronic technician of many years (music stores, etc), I thoroughly enjoy your videos.

I'm not a fan of Crown amps and not a fan of the XLS series. But it broke my heart to see someone had abused this unit so badly. So happy to see it under your very capable hands! I remember playing with a JBL MPX 1200 (it was a rebadged QSC mx) and when I saw the dual layer, the massive transformers and the spaghetti of wires I decided I didn't want to touch it!

[@mxslick50]

That JBL/QSC was still a superior amp to ANY of the Crown line. What was wrong with that amp you "played with" that made you not want to touch it? Did you really think that what you saw in that amp was worse than the hodgepodge in this Crown boat anchor? Even QSC's Series 3 (The modular ones) which weren't the greatest, were FAR more reliable and stable than Crown. I owned 5 of those modular QSCs and the only issue I had was a certain set of power resistors used to eventually melt the solder connections in the one channel where the module was mounted upside down. A reflow with good grade rosin core fixed that issue fast.
