I run the music elective program as artist in residence at Wyncote Academy. Most private schools have no music budget so I bought a cheap Technical Pro TA1250 power amp and then removed the gain pots and changed the inputs to 1/4 inch. I was getting drop outs with the RCAs. The amp was set up for mono bridging so I eliminated that when I bypassed the PCB that made such bridging possible. So far no problem. All the class equipment is run into a Behringer MX802A so that source is how I set the power amp response. I eliminated the gain pots on the front because the LD students felt (while I was busy in another room) they could boost the level. Best decision I have made. Yes, they could blow the amp and speakers via the Behringer but they haven't caught on to that possibility. I HATE gain pots on stereo power amps. They needn't be there. Any challenges?
