Hi,gtrjny99, if i were you i would replace both 5Watt resistors and both the Zener diodes,cant hurt and relatively inexpensive.Job done.

[gtrjny99]

What value?

Robert,

Is the recommendation to get larger wattage dissipation resistors?

Thanks,
John

Hi gtrjny99, R78 and R79 are the 330ohm 5W dropping resistors and CR13 and CR14 the 5W Zener diodes.You can go to 7W for the resistors if you like but 5W is ok as long as you lift them at least 1/2" up in the air to give them air space as a heatsink.Also lift the two new zener diodes up 1/2" above the board too,lets them have a bit of air for dissapating heat also!Hope that helps.

Thanks...

To all for the good knowledge on the amp.
Is there a parts list for the entire amp? In addition to the zeners and the resistors, I need to replace washers and nuts on all the jacks and pots... lost in the move, I'm afraid.

Thanks,
John
