I fix stuff for a living, but am quite new to the job. I know some electronics from my Physics degree, but would appreciate any sources of info. or discussion on electronics and repair thereof, especially schematics for amps and so on. Cheers.

I think it would be worth buying/borrowing a book specifically about audio electronics, it's a big subject.

As an exercise you could try constructing one of Maplins more complicated amplifier kits.. that certainly stretched my electronics fault finding skills to the limit!

Cheers, guys. Looks like a good site. And I've bought myself a decent handbook, also very helpful.
