I'd like to rebuild a KR-2400 I picked up this weekend. The seller told me that the right channel had bad sound, but I cleaned all the switches, and it sounded great with headphones, so I thought it was maybe okay.
But then I connected it to some speakers tonight, and sure enough, the right channel is distorted. Again, headphones are fine.
Is this bad output transistors? This model uses a 2SC789 and 2SA489 in pairs. Evidently these commonly go bad:
