Amp with no markings. Looking for manual.

Post by nctarheel420 »

I recently found an amp that used to belong to my brother. It is a PD-393. The markings for the terminals as well as the adjustment knobs are gone. I am looking for a manual so I can find out if it still works. I have briefly looked through the forums and couldn't find anything.

Could not find a forum. Found out though the brand is phonics digital. I have searched all over the place. I have emailed them to no avail. It has to be out there somewhere. PD-393

what you have is a VERY cheap knock-off amp of phoenix gold is what we are beating around the bush about. There will not be a forum for it, there will be no customer service, there is no warranty, and sorry its probably not worth repairing when it breaks(not if). Not trying to be rude but if phoenix gold were a steak it would be filet mignion where yours would be a mcdonalds hamburger. If pg was a car it would be the finest american sports car ever made and yours a yugo. If pg were a hooker it would be a classier kim kardashian and yours would be jesica simpsons sister. If pg were water it would be Fiji's finest and your from the malls fountain. I can keep going if you want, kinda fun really.

Sorry I am having fun at your expense but understand I am not laughing at you, just playin around. There are a number of brands that have copied PG from thump to phonics digital but hooked up on phonics never works for anyone long. Welcome to the forum. If you would like some help getting a bad-ass amp picked out for what you want we would be happy to help you out just let us know what you have and what you want.

If you really want to give that amp a shot, then open it up and post some pics. We would able to tell you which speaker terminals to use for bridge mode, which rca is left or right....lol...., which terminal is power, ground and remote....just enough info for you to power it up.

You lost me here because I'd hit Ashlee Simpson. At least before I'd put a flea market amp in my vehicle. :lol: :lol:

I would knock it up just for the child support but I would look at it like riding a scooter, fun but don't let your friends see ya.

Hope we, hope I didn't scare him off. Once I started it just seemed to keep going ya know?

If pg were fish it would be that blowfish that it is made by chefs that train how to do it for 4 yrs, and if made wrong will kill you. the phonics amp would be the gold fish at the fair that you know will die in 3 days.

If she could just shut the hell up maybe but her voice is one of the most annoying things known for me. The way she draw the last letters of the word out and into a low scowl to turn anything she says into a winey-ass SOB drives me nuts.

Now I can't wait to see what a classy train wreck a kid from her and kanye turns out to be. I am willing to bet this kid will make lohan look like a nun with how bad it will be acting out to get attention just watch.

Technically speaking, it's a speech mannerism called a "vocal fry". Here's an example:
