BASH HC1011 Klipsch ProMedia 5.1 RSW10 Harman Kardon NEW Replaces Circuit Board

Description

This new circuit board replaces the BASH HC1011 board used in Klipsch's ProMedia 5.1 and 4.1 computer speaker systems, their RSW10, and Harman Kardon's IL50 & IL60 speaker with active sub.
If your Klipsch ProMedia system has distortion in the satellite and/ or subwoofer channels, and your input cables, speakers and sound card are good, then it is likely that your original ceramic BASH HC1011 circuit board is failing. I have replaced hundreds of these over 15 years, but until this year, only ceramic replacements were available. Ceramic BASH boards, whether new or refurbished, have the same problems of brittle connections. The problem is so common that for the past 8 years I installed 15-pin sockets in the ProMedia 5.1 amplifiers I worked on, so that replacing the BASH HC1011 boards in the future would be easier for an owner. I am so happy to have a solution at last. The brittle connections in the originals are sometimes limited to just one that I could resolder (or replace the IC and remove the epoxy); other boards can have more breaks than I had room to add jumpers. Refurbishing never felt like a permanent solution. A knowledgeable engineer made this improved design possible.
This new, 2020 board performs the same as the old BASH HC1011 boards, without being brittle. I now use these on every ProMedia 5.1 amplifier that I sell. If you have a good desoldering tool and above average soldering skill, you may remove your old 15-pin HC1011 board and install this.
The flat, non-component side for the new board corresponds with the flat, non-component side of the original boards.
See the photo examples of the original HC1011 board mounted and how the replacement looks when mounted to the same amplifier. Be certain power has been disconnected for a minute before working, and that the board faces the same direction!
If you are a previous customer of mine and had your amplifier repaired by me since the summer of 2012 and before these new boards became available in the spring of 2020, your amplifier has 15-pin sockets. You can swap out the old board without any soldering needed. Ask me to include a complimentary small tube of
E6000 adhesive
for you, and it can be used to hold that board firmly inserted in its socket.  The adhesive is offered as a courtesy to repeat customers.
This replaces the common HC1011, and the less common HC1010 and HC1012 boards.
