Hafler 9130 power amp

I just removed the top cover of the amp and immediately noticed that the two white wires that attach to the left and right front panel output controls in mofi's second pix are totally missing. Does this mean that I am not getting full output?  

No- those would be gain/input level controls, without which you will get full input level(no attenuation), assuming the pots were simply bypassed. You should find wiring, from the input RCAs to the circuit board. One connection close to a 2.2uF cap and another to a ground point(which may also be on the circuit board, or the Stereo/Mono switch), for both the L & R inputs, of course. If I had a professional amp, that I intended to use for home audio, bypassing those would be my first tweak. See page 8, for info on the gain controls: http://www.hafler.com/pdf/archive/9130_amp_man.pdf

Great information rodman!  

So the gain controls being bypassed is not only a good thing, but a primary tweak. Knowledge is power. Once again, THANK YOU! BTW, I completed the switch replacement in less than 5 minutes thanks to you guys and the amp is back in service. Have a great weekend. 

You're welcome hooznwif!  Have a great "sounding" weekend.
