Well, try contacting the company that made the amp. Find out from them

Chances are they will say that it either can or can't be fixed and either tell you to send it in or not to bother. Either way, contact the maker, they may even have a local customer service center near you (depending on the size of the corp.)

Good luck. but really, you SHOULD mind paying to have it fixed because a repaired amp for (including repair costs and the cost of you buying it from a friend with no sort of warrenty or anything else) will NEVER be as good or have the security that you would have if you spent a few more bucks and bought a new one. Just my opinion. Good luck!!!

in my experience, fixing the stuff is always really expensive... you could always just forget about 1 channel and use it as a 2 channel amp, or you could use it to power a left, a right, and a center channel...
