I have just repaired two of these rather nice amplifiers.
There is no schematic or information available, so it was experience alone!
The first one was fairly easy; Distortion when increasing the output level. I replaced the MOS FET output stages and that sorted that one.
The second had weird noises and distortion; replace the Sony BX chips and repair the power supply fault that caused the problem in the first place.
I replace the power supply components in the first one as well as the second for added reliability.
I do like a challenge. 😀

Welcome to my Web site
I have designed numerous class d amps.
They consist of output transistors, class d IC and discrete components.
Every fault I have found has been the output transistors and/or the class d IC.
The mosfets can go short D-S and sometimes G-S.

Yes they do. With the moles the power supply running at 110volts tends to be strained and can fail at heavy and prolonged sound levels.
Nice amps though!
