SA Saxo Active BT amplifier swap
The problem
Lightning struck the building, resulting in an assortment of burned electronics, one of these components was a pair of bluetooth speakers.
There is no point attempting to repair the board since I do
not have acces to schematics, the PCB for the supply might not be the only broken part.
Teardown
There's no fancy procedure to dissasembly, just remove all the screws and tear out the guts.
The power and fuse connectors are glued, not bothering with them.
