Hello,
I recently required an early 90s pioneer vsx 5600 receiver. The guy I got it from said it stopped working one day and the unit did not make a second click when powering on (speaker protection relay). I know he ran like 11 speakers on this poor 5 channel receiver. Main output transistors Q1 and Q3 are blown, along with several burn't resistors on the AWH1008 amp assembly board. The transistors are a 2sa1302 and 2sc3281, which are obsolete, and they are notorious for counterfits all over the place online. Any comparable replacements? Upon desoldering Q1 and Q3, the protection relay released and I had sound on the right channel (didn't test other channels but I know those 2 power transistors would render the left dead). I believe replacing these resistors and transistors will fix it, but I'm not sure if any other components went out with it (such as driver transistors). Would this be worth it to fix? Are those transistors expensive? I will try to yank the board with the burnt resistors to find out the values, they scorched the board itself pretty good.
It won't let me upload the service manual pdf because it's too big (8mb really? lol). The link to download it is here: http://elektrotanya.com/pioneer_vsx-5600_vsx-5700s_sm.pdf/download.html
If that doesn't work I can email it to anyone willing to help.
Thanks,
Ron
