R-26PF/R-28PF Amplifier Removal Process

If you have an amplifier that needs to be removed or replaced in the R-26PF or R-28PF, please use the guide below for assistance. The removal of the amplifier should only take about 5 to 10 minutes.

Please Note: The pictured examples below are of the R-26PF. However, the process will be identical for the R-28PF as well.

1. Unplug the unit from power and let it sit for a few minutes to allow the capacitors to discharge any remaining electricity
2. Remove the screws from around the perimeter of the amplifier panel. There are 8 screws to remove in total. (Do not remove screws that are not on the perimeter as these hold the electronic boards to the plate)
   
   
3. Once the screws have been removed, pull the amplifier panel out enough so that the wires connecting the amp to the speaker components are visible
4. First, you will disconnect the set of wires highlighted below
   • Note: This will be a clip-on connector with a small tab you will need to push/move so that the connection can be removed (it may be a bit of a tight fit to get in there) 
     
     
     
5. Once those are removed from the amp, you can then move onto the next set of wires that will need to be disconnected (highlighted below)
   
   
   
   • Note: This will be the same clip-on style connector as the one before
     
     
6. The amplifier should now be completely free from the speaker cabinet
7. If you have a replacement amplifier, use the photos above for reference on where those wires plug in
