    This all happened when replacing L7, but I think L7 was not producing any voltage, just making a noise, traveling to Tr8 this is why I changed the L7,as it did not make a change on my oscilloscope.

    R58 keeps burning up, after replacing L7,LA111, 3 different LA111. Lifted legs on Driver Final, and Amp, replaced Voltage Regulator, no good. All I did was replace this for a noise, and would not adjust, was over tightened. Any ideas where to start? Thank you, enjoy your day,,,,,
