I aquired a clean Scott 382 stereomaster (SS) at a yard sale yesterday for $2.
A quick test showed the switches and controls needing a cleaning, which I did.
I re-tested it, using only a single small box speaker (8 ohms, I believe - my "test" speaker since blowing a pair on a vintage Aiwa). She heats up the back plate/heat sink fairly quickly - Seems to be around the area of one set of output trans (right channel?) - not around the other - made no difference which side I hooked the speaker to...
Might the speaker ohmage be off, or might it be because I only have a speaker connected to one side? (twix "com" and "main")
Or should I assume it needs a re-caping?
I'm not assuming, being it's solid state, that it's even worth fixing.
Advice???
Thanks, G :scratch2:
