    14 year-old stepson wants to learn soldering

    Don't use one of those "gun" type soldering irons. Buy a GOOD "pencil" type soldering iron. It should be 35 to 40 watts if not temperature controlled. With a temperature controlled iron about 50 or 60 watts would be nice. Bigger connections (terminals) need higher wattage due to heat absorption...

    What just happened? Cabinet sparks

    That type of automotive light bulb normally has the bulb part number printed on its metal base. I have seen the part number both embossed into the metal surface sometimes and also printed on the surface.

    Is a QSC PLX 3002 too old to purchase ?

    Thank you for the information agedhorse. I will definitely download the owners manual and check out those DIP switches. I have no plans to bridge it at all, I am going to run it in stereo. I am using it for a couple of speakers I have in my music room. I have other amps and speaker cabinets for...

    Thank you for the reply Masher88 and Munjibunga I appreciate it. I do not have any further questions at the moment, but I may have some questions once I get it. It is 200 miles away in another city and my brother is buying it for me and bringing it down to me when he visits in a few weeks. I...

    Is a QSC PLX 3002 too old to purchase ?

    Thank you for the replies jnewmark and BasturdBlaster. For me it is not so much the question of reliability but rather the quality of the sound produced. As capacitors diminish over time I know they can affect electronics resulting in less bass/low end reproduction. I had a Roland rack mount...

    Is a QSC PLX 3002 too old to purchase ?

    Hello I am trying to decide if a QSC PLX3002 is too old to buy. It is my understanding that once capacitors get around 20 years old they have lost a lot of their capacitance (dried up). I don't know exactly how old the units are that I am looking at. But I saw an owners manual online that shows...
