Hi Zeno .Thanks for the Sams lookup and tips. .I have a handful of the TSMs here somewhere..The output cap is a 220uf BTW..

Do you have a equiv schematic somewhere I can go by for now..

The output design is quite typical. Fix almost always is change all three
transistors, check low ohm resistors in output & change the speaker
coupling cap ( usually between 220mfd & 470mfd). When you have audio outs & drivers DC coupled shot gunning is best.
