Crown D-150A series 2: help
A Crown D-150A series ll power amplifier was left abandoned in the hallway of my building (people throw out nice things in my building).
For now I can't turn it on because it's missing the fuse 6.25A MDX (easy to replace). The bigger problem is that it's also missing the fuse holder: part # C5597A5
I'm combing the internet to no avail. Anybody know where I can find this modest little part?
Thanks in advance.

The bigger problem is that it's also missing the fuse holder: part # C5597A5Should really be bought back up very slowly with a variac and monitored with test gear, at a few different points It will be very good luck if it powers up and works, they are probably missing for a reason, should be looked at by a tech first before re-powering again, because even more damage could happen, if you want to keep it and get it fixed.

Before you install fuse holder, use a 150Watt
incandescent
light bulb instead of a fuse, power up the amplifier without speaker connected, if the light bulb light up a second then dim down, the amplifier maybe still in working condition, next thing to check is DC voltage at output, if less than 50mV, then it is safe
to install fuse holder and connect
speakers for sound
test. If power up the amplifier the light bulb light up continuously and not dimming, then the amplifier need to be get fixed. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Leviton-Weatherproof-Socket-Black-R60-00055-000/100356874 https://www.wikihow.com/Measure-DC-Offset |
