I have a service manual for this amp but it seems useless for this. It is telling me too adjust VR101 and VR201 so that the voltage between the test points reaches 4 + - 0.5mv Now the issue is is it saying 4 volts? There is no way that you would want 4 volts at the collector and if it's 4mv that sounds way too low too me. So what should it be? I am not going to even open it up until I can find the correct into too go by.

If you have this amp and know please lend me a hand and tell me what you know.

I am going to recap the amp too when I get the time and money but this comes first.

    I do not have your particular amp, but in general, 4 volts at the collector of a transistor is too high.

    Yes that would cook it. I know it should be in the mv range but if it was 4mv that would be too me it wouldst too small.

    So I really don't know what too do. The M-03 has the same amp boards but the service manual for it is like mine not right.
