  • EMC Gemini 6 channel PA transistor ID

    I was wondering if anyone can identify this transistor? It comes from an EMC Gemini PA head.
    The numbers on it read: CFE 13049 and 7042.
    Here are some pictures. I need to find a suitable substitute. Any recommendations?

    It appears I don't need to replace this one. Signal traced to this transistor where the signal wasn't passing and switched it with another one from another channel and now the dead channel is working. But the same transistor put into the good channel works. Must have been a solder joint. It certainly looked good.
    Now all channels are working. yay!

      When you had it out (or while it is still in circuit) did you test it with your meter? You can tell if it is an NPN or a PNP or an FET, etc. just using your meter.

        No I didn't.
        If you don't mind, how is this done?

            EMC? Is this a 70s era thing, blue, and made in Cleveland?


            I have only seen one EMC PA, but i will never forget it. It was stereo, two 100w power amps, and it was 8 channels in. But for some facacta reason, they had channels 1 through 4 feeding the left amp, and channels 5 through 8 feeding the right. It had monitor outs, which were nothing more than parallel jacks across the mains with L-pads added. What a home made nightmare.
            Education is what you're left with after you have forgotten what you have learned.

                Pure 70īs baby!!!!!!
                Used to make tons of very similar "PA heads" .... until d*mned Acoustic and Yamaha stole the market.
