I rarely use the subwoofer, we're more music that movie people. It is nice to be able to flip it on for a movie on the odd occasion, so I really wouldn't want to spend more than a couple hundred dollars to get it running again. Anything more and I'd rather put the money towards improving the music...
I've seen the plate amplifiers on parts express. I was wondering if anyone knew if there's anything out in the market place (for a reasonable price) they know would fit in the enclosure / work well.
I guess the next option is to pull out the multimetre and see if I can find where the short is...
Cheers!
