Crate amps: Inrush current limiting
Hi  
I replace alot of output transistors in crate amps I see these blue MOV's in there and I wonder if there part of the problem. I have two identical amps in the shop. Can't think of the model off hand. it uses tip142 and tip147 darlington pairs. Both amps look brand new and are dead as hell.
