Hello Lakesailor,

I own two Proceed HPA 3 (original owner), and have a problem with one of the amps. In my country, the Harman Kardon dealership has changed three times in the past five years. As you can imagine, the actual dealer does´nt even know the Proceed brand. I have a local technician that repairs amps but the schematics are needed. I would like to know if I can get this information from you.

Thank you,

eadomin

These amps had very tight operating tolerances and generally require servicing from a knowledgeable tech on a somewhat regular basis. They are excellent amps and are very dynamic. If you do buy the 433 and run into an issue I have the HPA schematics that I could send to you. From my experience this series of amps has no cap problems.

Hi, I've got an HPA 2 and it started going into protected mode. I have narrowed it down to the #2 amp board. Do you still have the schematics to the HPA? If so, could you share them with me? Thanks, Jim

Lakesailor,

I also would be very appreciative to have the HPA schematics. I currently have an HPA3 here on my bench that I am repairing and service information would most certainly be welcome.

Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to provide.

Ron

I have one more question, if some one can help me with the answer.
What is the power capacitors spec in proceed hpa2/hpa3. Amp5 is 17000mF and 90v, 35mm diameter and 120mm height.

Hello Lakesailor,

This may be beating a dead horse, but I too would like a copy of the Proceed HPA schematic, if you're still around. I have an HPA3 that has two channels not working and it has been pretty much mothballed for a couple years now. Before sending it in to a service center (I've used Pyramid in the past) I would really like to take a look at it myself in case the problem is something simple. The prices I've seen for fixing these things service centers are a little scary. Any information I can glean before actually tearing into it would be helpful. Thanks
