I have a 4B ST blowing fuses on one channel, alternating between the external 7A fuse and the 8A internal fuse.
Date code 9925, which means a year past warranty.  Figures.

  • To whom more was given more will be required.
    • Never go to a psychiatrist, adopt a straycat or dog. On the street they live only two years average.

Welcome! Could be damage to the power supply or output section.

This happened after a recent move.  I wonder if it was caused by shock damage.
It happens immediately when it is powered on.

Is that a CF-105 in your avatar?

Does the amplifier blow fuses with nothing other than power connected to it? No speakers, no speaker wires, no input ICs...

My avatar is a CF-105, circa 1958.
The amplifier only has power connected, and the fuse blows as soon as you push the switch.
Then you only see one channel green light, always the same one.

Hi bhf

Sorry for your troubles.  It sounds like the output section is defective so it will definitely need service.  Please contact Mike at Bryston ... mpickett@bryston.com

I saw one in L.A. 1957/1958.  Really!  It's OT, so I won't expand here on the circumstances.
