Need Schematic for Audio Centron RMA-1600 Power Amp
07-12-2010, 05:25 AM
Hi, I just picked up an Audio Centron RMA-1600 Power Amp that immediately blows the fuse at power on. Anyone have a schematic for this model?

Even without schematics, immediately we need to look for shorted output transistors, and also shorted rectifiers or bridges in the power supply.

Thanks for the reply Enzo. I am already thinking the bridge as I had one of those go in a different amp a few years ago. I'll gonna tear into it this weekend.
What's the proper way to test those output transistors?

STick an ohm meter across them and see if they are shorted.
