Hi guys, whilst watching lord of the rings the other night I heard a loud pop and my amp died. It'll turn on with no lcd display or sound then it turns itself off!

It was the JVC RX-ES1SL, which powered the JVC SP-F303 and JVC SP-DW103 sub.

Speakers:

100w @ 8 ohms (can't seem to find much info on them)

Sub:

Basically what would you guys suggest as a replacement amp? I don't want to spend much at all. Fed up of spending a lot of equipment and it failing 3-4 years down the line. I'm running a stereo amp that's over 20 years old now

So basically as cheap as possible please! Thanks in advance!

Thanks a lot guys. Will have a look into the Denon amp! So annoying having the sub etc.. without a damn amp!! Does it matter that the amp is powered?

The 5 speakers are powered by the amp and the sub is a mono phono feed from the amp to the sub.

ethos, where abouts are you? I'm in Manchester. If you wanted it, I could pick it up and sort something out for delivery

edit... Ahh, just seen cornwall. If it's all boxed up properly, I reckon it'd cost about £20 to courier.

That's very kind!!! I'll keep an eye on the item, it has 8 days left on it at the moment. If it goes for a decent price i'll pay you for your troubles!!
