777 chanel not working!!!

If i bought a 777 with a blown channel would it be repairable or is it a dead loss???? I'm just thinking about buying one!!

Never worked on a 777 (or 767 Razz) but if it's definitely 'blown' according to someone with technical knowledge, then it is repairable, if you can diagnose which parts have failed and obtain/replace those parts. It may just be a dodgy switch, bad headphone jack or loose connection, if you're lucky. Smile

yes 2steppa I may well give it a shot!!!I'm not frighten to open it up but more worried about parts!!!

the 777 has an amp for the mids and an amp for the woofers, so if one channel aint working it would have to be both amps faulty, so i dout that its the amps, could be a fault on the pcb,or as 2steppa says," may be lucky and it just needs cleaning

Probably a faulty switch- super dirty and needs cleaning- clean all switches well, probably not the amps as another poster said..I worked on a 777 that wouldn`t power on, guess what, the power switch was full of grunge, cleaned it and poof! One working 777 ! Smile

You will probably find the Volume pot at fault, I've had a few with channel issues and thats been the problem twice, you can get them apart and clean them which worked on one Smile

was it the 767 that finished about 3 ish

saxonman - 2009-11-30 08:45

yer it was and I cannot seem to get one of the 767 777 machines so I'm going for a fixer instead Geoff.Was that too much for that 117 or should i have gone more next time??I have given up getting a crown big box as they make silly money!!

was a bit much, needed alot of work, i was going to bid but went to high for me, one will come up one day for you, i bought a job lot of 11 boxes for £87 about 2 years ago was pick up only hence low price, anyway in the lot was a 767 and a vz 2000, sold them all on apart from the 767 and still got 160 for the rest, so bargains do come along now and then
