Peavey 8.5c amplifier. One channel dead. In
Peavey 8.5c amplifier. One channel dead. In bridge mode unbalanced output. Two 7500uF 100V capacitors are swollen on top compared with other two. Swollen capacitors are not O/C nor S/C. Are transistors to blame? Who is supplier of 7500uF 100V?

FIrst of all, in bridge mode there is only one channel. The "bridge" means that you combine the two channels together to get a single more powerful amp. The swollen part is probably nothing. Sometimes the plastic caps cup like that. Unless there is a specific problem with the amp, don't worry about it. Try placing the amp into stereo mode and testing each channel. If both work, there is no problem with the amp. If for some reason you need repalcement capactors, contact Peavey directly. They supply replacement parts.
