    UPDATE: After disassembling the NAC I saw that the lower rear was badly damaged: I solved it by creating a new fiberglass piece, which I glued with the same resin. The result was excellent, after painting you will not see anything.

    Adding a stereo amp to a New Astro City

    Hi @kidpanda , I am in this situation of putting a small LEPY amplifier on my astro city. But I have a doubt: is the power supply capable of delivering the necessary amps? To my knowledge, LEPY requires 2/3 amps while the SEGA power supply should deliver 1.5 amps in 12volt. Thank you

    Negative feedback for YATON

    I placed a large order for astro parts in June, and one in August. It does not give a tracking code, it does not respond to emails or messengers. I hope it's not gone @YATON. I'm starting to lose patience too.
