Trying to identify diodes!

Post by arwokc »

Can any of you guys that have experience with K***t amps, identify the diodes on the right of this picture? I only have the picture, not the actual amp.

Thanks for your help,

Andy

Just guessing here, but are those N5408's? They are higher amperage rectifer diodes. Is this rectifying the 5v tap to power a relay? Since it's a heater winding it would be a higher current circuit potentially...
