Cambridge Audio P100, Source for ME4101 ?

istari knight · 26th January 2012, 04:14 PM

Recently acquired a Cambridge Audio P100 amplifier with no output from one channel. I believe I've tracked the problem down to 2 ME4101 transistors in the R channel of the Power amp board but cant find a source for them anywhere.

Does anyone know a suitable substitute or anywhere that sells the damn things ?

There are 2 per channel (top corners) :

Thanks for any help

Looking at the datasheet, any modern to-92 device should work.

Okay, thanks for that. Any specific recomendations ?

Cheers.

BC546C, easy to find, cheap and right on the specs.
