Hey guys. So I have a Sound Blaster 16 CT1740 which was getting quite hot and also not playing sound out of the left channel. Due to this I replaced the Dac, Amp, Yamaha OPL Sound Chip and 2 larger capacitors located near the volume wheel. All with new parts. I haven't tested it yet as wanted to know if I should also replace the 2 voltage regulators first? Just don't want to power it up and fry the amp etc. Basically I'd like to know if the voltage regulators would cause a sound card to get hot and fry the amp.
