Source of buying SA1370/SA3467

[pchw]

Hi all,

The right channel of my friend's Carver TFM-35 is occasionally lower the sound level. He called Sunfire support, and he was told the offending parts were the SA1370 and SA3467 transistors. However, I had a hard time to find the source of these 2 types. I openned the case and found the 2 pairs of the transistors that had these 4 digit numbers, one pair had A1370, and the other had C3467. Should the SA3467 be SC3467?
I found these 2 from Newark:

Are they the right parts that I am looking for?

Thanks!!!

Fred,

2SA1370 and 2SC3467 sound plausable. Here is datasheet.

Not sure they can tell this is the problem but should be fairly inexpensive to try. Looks like a driver pair. Follow safety precautions....
readily available from most japanese transistor suppliers (MCM, BD Ent, etc)

Thanks, Bob.
What really surprises me is both Mouser and Digikey don't have the SA1370 in stock, and the SC3467 is not even available at all!!
Searched MCM Electronics also turned up nothing. I guess I better send the order to Newark before they disappear
