Cambridge A500 power stage

Hi

I've been trying to sort the power supply on this shorting to earth for a couple of weeks now.

I really don't have the time to resolve it. Does anybody happen to have a working replacement I could drop in? Would be worth a fair reward.

Hate to chuck it, might sell on ebay as spares/repair.

You may want to try the Swap Meet section.

The power supply shorting to ground? Shorted electrolytic cap? Or did the transformer finally give up the ghost and developed a primary-secondary or primary-chassis short?

It is such a simple power supply. Where is the short, input (mains) output (regulator failed), which fuse is blowing? Output transistor short circuit? Not a lot left to check.
