HK730 Blows all four fuses

Hi

I dropped my HK730 while trying to clean it and it landed on the corner where the on/off button is, since then it blows all four fuses as soon as I turn either of the speakers A/B on.
The reciver starts up fine and lights up but as soon as i turn either of the speaker outlets on it blows all four fuses, quite instantly one after the other.
I even tried to remove the Power Amp but it still blows all four fuses when i turn the speakers on.
The speakers are disconnected.

I´ve tried to see if anything is obviously out of place and I have done some testing with my mulitmeter but don´t know really where to start. I would like some help on how to do this in a way that I pice by piece can rule out diferent parts of the Amplifier.

Any help is greatlly appreciated.

Often a drop and cause over stress to the chassis causing cracks in the printed circuit board that need repairing, and/or something bent over that is now connecting to power carrying areas it shouldnt.
 
Looking at the schematics it seems the first converging point after the speaker selectors is the pre amp section. Am I correct to start looking for a fault there?
