Good Day All

I have taken on the project of fixing and restoring a 1970's RSE, JLH 100W amp, but i am running into some issues. I keep on blowing the 2A power supply + and - fuses.

i have check the power supply and all the components are correct and working but not so much the amp side.

it uses 2n3055 output transistors. i have been using my DM to test them on the diode function  and i am getting the below results

2N3055

B-E 513
B-C 512

B-E 510
B-C 501

B-E 516
B-C 505

B-E 518
B-C 508

from what i have read this is correct as there should be a 0.5V drop or so i understood. but does this fall in the correct ranges and if a transistor has blown what results would i be getting?

Thanks
