Alesis ION repair-question

Post by Old Iron Giant » Thu Jun 18, 2009 10:30 am

Iv been setting on this situation for months now, and finally decided to put some effort into fixing my ION.
Here's the problem- The Main-outs are dead at the moment, and the Left channel Aux-out is going faint.
As i understand by research, the Main-outs are caused by faulty JFET's modeled J111. Now here's my question; Are there other supplement FET "transistors" i could use, aside from the J111? Iv searched High and low for these transistors, only finding them on Online electronic wholesale sites.

second question.
What could cause the Left Aux-out channel to go slightly faint?

I used Mouser # 781-J111-E3 successfully. I don't remember if the Aux outs used the same transistors or not.
