2000xp8

I was too lazy to pick it up yesterday, when i do, i'll take some pics after when i'm comparing the insides of the x603 to the 3300, so i can see if my untrained eye thinks it's worth it to keep it for parts. They'll tell me whats wrong when i pick it up, but so far they said they've already changed a bunch of stuff, and it will start to work but it shuts off. They also said some coil is burned and possibly something wrong with the power supply, whatever the hell that means. Joe

Well, my xtant 3300x amp is not fixable supposidly. They said they put a bunch of parts into it, but it still won't work right. So i just purchased an xtant x603 which seems to be almost exactly the same. Should i ebay the 3300 for parts? So someone else in the same boat can use mine for parts if there's breaks? Or should i save it? not sure how alike my amp and the x603 are, but the schematics look nearly identical.

Well, i just called xtant to see what they had to say, seems they don't repair the older models anymore because they have trouble themselves getting the parts. You'll see me here on weds or thurs night saying either i'm getting another amp or mine is ready. So if anyone here has doubts the 403 can't power my system please let me know now. Thanks, Joe

I told the repair place, who really wants to fix it for some reason, that if i call before it's fixed, whether they have the parts or not, that i'm going to tell them to forget it, and take the amp back, and get a new one. Then later i can get it fixed when i have more cash, then i can use the 403 in my mustang.

Well, i'm going to give them until this wednsday, That will be 4.5 weeks, when they said it would be 10 days. I'm trying to be patient because i like the amp, but since it powers my entire stereo i'm going nuts.

Hey guys i was recommend here by denim. Be patient i don't know much about stereos, i'm a motor guy. Here's my situation, my explorer has an xtant 3300x powering then entire stereo system. It burned out about 3 weeks ago, supposidly a shop is fixing it, but they say they are having trouble getting parts. I'm growing impatient because i have nothing at all, because i have a non powered eclipse head unit. I'd like to replace it with a xtant 603, but at the moment even a refurbished one is a little much for my budget. Could i get away with using a xtant 403 to power the whole thing? Pics of the stereo are on the second or third page of my cardomain in my sig. I have a downfacing box with 3 10 inch mtx subs, but i'm not real sure what kind. 3300x 403 Stats are a couple pages down on each. I can get the 403 cheap, or i can hold out for mine to be fixed, which the cost i agreed to is 110, on top of the 30 i paid them to look at it, it's at a repudable place. Would i notice a big difference in sound with the 403? Thanks, Joe
