Rega Elex MK1

Hello,

I need your knowledge about a rega Elex mk1, PCB V2.

First of all, does anyone have a service manual for this amplifier? It's crazy, on the PCB many components have the same marking!

The amplifier worked for a short time with one channel less efficient than the other. It ended up blowing the right channel output transistors.

Someone has obviously already worked on this side of the amplifier. Some transistors have been replaced as well as diodes and resistors.

Do you know if this amp accepts being powered on without the C2837 and A1186 output transistors so that I can check if something else has failed?
Before breakdown, the power transistors were powered and +-43V and the level difference problem seemed to come from the power part of the channel in question.

Thank you in advance for your help !

Edit : surprisingly, an LED of the phono part of the same channel is also HS
