Bryston 2B output Transistor replacement

Archived from groups: rec.audio.tech (More info?)

I need to replace the output transistors in my Bryston 2B Amp but the
number on the schematic cannot be found in the NTE cross reference can
someone give me a suitable Replacement Part. Also anyone familiar with
and adjustments needed on replacing the outputs, bias settings etc?.
Thanks.

Is the amp more than 20 years old? If not, then it is still under
warranty. Even if it is older, you should contact Bryston for the info or
help -- they may repair it for you anyway.

I contacted Bryston, based on the serial number the amp is approx 23
years old. They suggested I send them the module that is faulty. The
original transistors seem to be 2N6609 and 2N3773, I will make an
attempt to repair it myself if unsuccessfull I will send it to
Bryston.
As it is an older model I was realy wondering if there was anyone who
had done any moddification to this amp, for example the power supply
caps seem relatively small (physically, I need to check the
capacitance) what about taking some of the changes used in the 3B-SST
model and applying them to the 3B?
Thanks.
