Hi guys.
I need to test some 2SC1584 transistors. They come from an older power amp, used in the power supply (+52v, - 52v and ground). There was a pop noise in this amp exactly where these transistors were placed and the amp stopped working. They somehow still check OK when testing with a multimeter.
My question is: I have another 24v power supply with a 2N3055 and it works. Since both transistors have the same pinout and similar datasheets, I was wondering if I could just switch these Transistors in order to see if they still work.

Yes, I checked every tr, diode, coils, resistors and electrolyte caps. Replaced one resistor in the power supply, reattached one leg of lytic cap that got loose. Everything checks out all right.
Regarding my question about the 24v power supply and the 2N3055, would it be safe to test the 2SC1584 transistors on it
Regarding my question about the 24v power supply using a 2N3055, would it be safe to remove this transistor in order to test a 2SC1584?
