I'll get to that in a bit.
I'm waiting to hear back from the person I bought the amps from to buy the remainder of his defective units.
I'd rather not specify the damage then have him fix them up.

What was wrong with it? Nothing really looks burnt on the PCB board as far as I can tell.

In case anybody ever wondered what a big old school amplifier looks like on the inside, I took some pictures of one of mine after I'd opened it up and repaired it (bought it as "dead on arrival.")

I've labeled a few things just to give you an idea of what you're looking at.
The amp is rather large, at 24" long, and I could barely carry three of them down a flight of stairs without dropping them. They aren't very light.
Specs are as follows:

250 watts RMS x 2 @ 4 ohms
500 watts RMS x 2 @ 2 ohms
1,000 watts RMS x 1 @ 4 ohms bridged
accepts up to 4AWG power cable directly
internally fused using two 5AG-40A glass fuses
active cooling (built-in 80mm fan)
class-A/B design, all MilSpec components
original MSRP $1,250
