This pre amp came to me with one totally dead channel, it's dual mono and one of the transformers would get hot enough to burn your hand in a minute, when hooked up to a dbt the bulb would burn bright, it has not been powered on since my initial checking when I got it. I found loads of shorted transistors in the power supply area of the schematic and replaced all of them, q702,703, 701 ect. However I found a dead short across c702 with my multimeter. I have attached the schematic and highlighted c702. Any idea's what I should check next? I have been able to repair various power amps in the past but this pre amp seems to be more complicated that a simple replacement of a few transistors.
