Hi, I'm having a problem with a vintage Denon receiver that up until a week ago worked wonderfully. The right channel randomly got severely distorted, while the left remained normal. Today I opened it up to see if I could see anything wrong, and I found 2 blown fuses that correlate to the right channel. As a test, I took the 2 functional fuses from the left channel (same specs) and put them in place of the blown ones. As soon as I hit the power button both fuses blew and a capacitor right next the the fuse on the right let out a little smoke. So now both channels sound horribly distorted.
Any idea why the right channel would blow the fuses instantly? From what I've read it might be something to do with shorted output transistors?
