Re: Sansui 5000a blows right channel fuse

If one channel is dead, most likely the output Xistor or push pull pair of xistors are shorted. It is possible, but unlikely, that a fusistor is in the output stage amp design, or
better yet a fuse! You may have gotten lucky and saved the output Xistors for that channel. Without checking the diagram, I am not sure what circuitry is there.
The usual cause of this problem is sloppy wiring to that channel speaker! Frayed wiring or stray strands touching the opposite pole connection is extremely common. If the wires to the speakers...
