I have 2 lightning audio s2.600 that have different things wrong with them. One I received and worked fine till wham it had this buzz in it about 48 hours after installing it. I can rule out the install because I have a diamond audio on the same power lines and the grounds where the same. So I got the lightning audio replaces and moved my install to the trunk. When I installed the new amp it again worked fine running two lightning audio strike subs @ 4 ohms, and then I decided to use it for my interior speakers. With in two days blamo I get nothing. So I thought maybe I can take the power supply from one and combine it with the sound prosser from the other and whalla-working amp? IS this a difficult thing to do? Just a thought.

It's not too difficult if you have electrical and electronics training and the proper tools and test equipment.  Also a schematic of the amps in question helps.  If not, then I suggest you don't poke around under the hood, take the amps to a pro in your area and see how much it might cost to get them working.

If you don't mind total loss of both amps as a distinct possibility, have fun tinkering.  I've ruined a few gimpy electronic appliances by poking around inside.  ...and I can't really say I learned a great deal in the process, either.
Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.
