Hello,
Please help!!! My Teac AG-D8250 receiver has power but no sound. Will a short circuit have caused the fuses to blow first before any transistors or resistors?
 
The fuses are blown, so are the transistors.
A short circuit will wipe the amp out. The fuses are not fast enough to protect the other components.
