Blown Threshold S/300 Stasis II

I over drove it tonight and it went quiet without warning.The on/off light works.
I was really pushing it but I heard no distortion or clipping.I've never played it this loud,but I feel I still had head room.
Im using a re-built Dynaco ST-70 on top.
The Dyna seems fine.
The Threshold has a breaker for a on/off switch but I didnt notice if it had tripped.
One thing I did notice,is the left channel heat sinks were considerably warmer (not hot) than the right channel heat sinks.
Anyway,the amp is dead quiet.
Could it be the breaker/on/off switch 'burned' and a simple replacement may cure the problem?
Or am I in trouble?
Thank you for any advice.

I used to have a forte amp that I believe was made by threshold. Inside that amp each channel had 2 fuses.
Try taking the top off and see if they are blown. If so, you might find replacements at radio shack.
