You have a dc offest oin the base of your outputs. Check to see which polarity. To work on this unit lift all output leads and see if you can signal trace a sine wave thru the circuit. See where it gets bad. Should be able to see good signal drive on pad of lifted base on putputs. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tel-Tek Electronics" <teltek@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, November 12, 2001 3:57 PM Subject: [TechAssist] Re: Realistic Stereo Receiver STA-2100 > > Thanks Frank; > I have isolated it to Right side. > If I remove the B+ from one side, (unit has two modules, relay will click > and good side will work). > Have checked the transistors on the defective side, 4 mounted on heat sink, > and small drivers on the same module.
