A good tech should have little difficulty locating a replacement for those transistors. Tech should match them and if this is a stereo amp, should replace the transistors in both channels even if only one side is bad.
Blown Classe CAP-80
My old Classe CAP-80 has borne the brunt of a nearby lightning strike. I took it to a local repair guy, who told me that among the things that were cooked were a couple of 2sk389 transistors, which are no longer available. The rest of the bits that were fried are still readily available, but not these transistors.
So my question is what can I do? Does anyone know of a good source of out-of-print transistors, or of a workaround for them? I haven't had any luck contacting Classe... Don't know if they are even still extant.
Please help!!
Thanks!
Matt
