Service Bulletin
Service bulletin # INF2008-02 April 2008 Warranty labor rate: MAJOR repair
In the event you receive a Reference 1300A auto amplifier with the complaint: “There is a popping
sound in the speakers when the unit turns on or off”, perform the following modification.
Synopsis: Change three components with new component values, and one Transistor with another type.
Note: RoHS-rated* de-soldering and soldering equipment will be required.
1) Remove the silver trim panel (see the owner’s manual page 2); unplug the five-pin Molex connector.
2) Remove the bottom cover, (8) Phillips screws.
3) Remove the front & rear side panels, 2.5mm Allen (hex key) screws.
4) Remove all nine steel transistor clamps. The technique is detailed in Infinity Tech Tip #INFTT2008-01.
5) Slide the main PCB out of the heatsink. Locate and replace the following components.
6) Order kit # REF1300Akit2008, which should contain the following components:
C102, 47µf/16V Electrolytic cap; replace with new 100µf/25V cap
C104, 100/16V Electrolytic cap; replace with new 220µf/25V cap
C140, 220µf/16V Electrolytic caps; replace with new 470u/16V cap
Q207 Transistor 2SC8050 NPN TO-92, replace with new 2SK30A JFET TO-92
When replacing capacitors, observe polarity.
(New transistor should be inserted exactly the same way as former one.)
7) Replace main PCB, clamps, Molex connectors, front & rear panels, and bottom cover.
8) Test unit to assure the complaint has been resolved.

TECH TIPS
Troubleshooting tips and solutions to common service problems
Subject:
How do you remove the heatsink clips on the Reference Series amplifiers to service the main PCB
or replace an output device ?
Solution:
The heatsink clips on the Reference Series may be extracted from the heatsink channel by the
use of a hardened steel tool such as a 9/64” allen (hex key) wrench, and inserting it into the
square hole in the middle of the clip. Enter the hole and press the tool downwards, concentrating
on first one side of the clip; then switch to the other side. The clip should creep out of the slot in
the heatsink. Sometimes a substantial amount of force may be required before it comes out with a
“pop”. To replace, the clip must be hammered back into place, back into the groove, with a
hammer and extension bar, if needed.
