I inherited a repair job that I can't get started because I can't get
the damn amp open.

It's a Galaxy Audio Core PA5X140 all-in-one PA. It's a tough little
unit, with a die-cast metal chassis set into a thick rugged plastic
(polypropylene?) case, that can sit on top of a mike stand. Similar to
this one: http://galaxyaudio.com/MSPA.jsp. The front of the chassis has
6 screws into the case, and there's one on the back I removed, but I
still can't get the chassis out of the case. I tried prying the case,
thinking there might be some cast-in lugs I could open, but no luck,

and
I didn't want to risk chewing up the edge of the case.

Does anyone have any idea how to open up this unit?



At least no one has suggested a Plsma Cutter! ;-)



Nah! "Angle grinder" as they always say over on uk.d-i-y :-)

When you loose neg bias on audio output bottles and a hole is burnt through
the anode plate and up to the point the the glass melts and vacuum is lost ,
is that plasma cutting?
