You're welcome. It was a fun exercise for me as well. Good to hear that all is working now. :)

Indeed! I do love a challenge and it is good to have some expert help as well!
I learned a lot more than I knew before about how amplifiers actually work from this one. It was good fun! 😁

I would replace the SMD caps on the other module too, if you re-read my post #40 you will see they where bad on both.

I checked the ESR on them both in circuit and they were 0.3Ω and 0.7Ω (I forget which was which). Which I didn't actually do on the other module.
I didn't want to tempt fate and remove the module if I didn't need to just in case I made it worse! I had a very hard time soldering those SMD parts as it is!

New to the forum (typically on diyaudio and audiokarma) and 2+ months late to this topic. Quite a nice dialogue and repair. :)
FWIW, I went through an almost exact repair sequence in February 2021. I acquired a C325BEE (a for-parts-only special) from ebay.
Although in addition to the +/-18V power supply issues, the main power board was fried on my amp. In the end I have a very nice working amp.
I wanted to add that the failed SMD caps on the CB21 + CB22 riser boards I replaced with similar SMD form-factor parts, but solid-polymer type electrolytics.
Again, I enjoyed the thread, very good info.
