Crown CE 1000 Worth trying to fix?

[Shimp]

I could definitely agree with that. And no I bought it cheap, broken, it wouldn't have been so expensive to fix had I had all the necessary parts on hand and installed before I started it up. All that protection whiz-bang and it still fried some good parts, but that's the way it goes, the protection is designed to have all the parts in place, even if they are not part of the protect circuit. A fuse IMO would have been better than a Circuit Breaker, but I have DJ'd in past and understand that it's easier to let something cool down and retry the breaker vs swapping fuses. I'll probably get the rest of the parts needed to finish the repair next week and hopefully it will work. BTW: I have only seen these in GOOD used condition for $250, not less than that, only "it may work" "untested" etc.
