Have a problem with my RT2500 where I have no audio output. Found that fuses F106 and F107 (125v 1.5a). After replacing fuses the unit would not power on (standby light on). Pulled fuses and was able to power on with holding the standby sw and unplug and plug. Put F106 in and powered on and did not blow fuse but when I put in F107 it powered on and blew the fuse again. Looks like F104-F07 are on the outbut of the large xformer (behind small speaker board). Also noticed that the 6800uf 16v caps (beside heat sink) were bulging at the top although I had not other audio problems prior to this. Have not checked resistance between the windings of the xformer yet (with 60-70 hour work week have limited time). Haven't been able to locate a schematic for this product so any insite would be helpful. Thanks...
I had the same problem! My fix was replacing both fuses and both 6800uf 16volt
capacitors. You can get the fuses at radio shack and I found the caps on ebay
in canada.

Hey EmperorBob, was reading a short across D119 & D120. pulled (I think it was) C139 and was able to get a good reading across the two diodes. reading a short on the cap (out of circuit). Still poking around. Will let you know if I find anthing else...

I have the same issue. Same two fuses blown.
I also noticed I get no audio via the Headphone jack either (though the front panel displays Headphone when I plug in).
If you figure this one out that'd be great as I loved the unit! I don't want to have to replace it. ;(
I have the same problem with no audio out. However fuses 106 and 107 are blown. Also the 6800uf capacitor is bulging. Thanks for the help on where to
start looking but if you come up with a fix i would appreciate it.
