Finding the fuses in my Marshall G100R CD Amplifier

SOURCE: mp3

The problem is that a CD has a stereo signal and the Marshall is mono.

You could make a simple mixer cable with resistors as a completed cable is not something you will find easily.

Take three 1K resistors joined at one end and connect the open ends of those one each to the three terminals of a stereo plug that fits you CD player.

Connect a mono plug and cable with "hot" to the joined connection of those resistors. Connect the ground shield of that cable to the barrel connection of the stereo plug that one of the resistros is also connected.

NOTE: if you use the "line" output of the CD player, then use 10K ohm resistors instead of 1K.

SOURCE: Why my Marshall amplifier immediately blows fuses?

It could be a failed power supply capacitor, it could be a shorted speaker, it could be a shorted cable. It might also be a conductive piece of trash in just the wrong spot on the circuit. They would be the big ones of about 5000 microfarad give or take a few hundred microfarads.

Though a little less likely, there could be a short of failed component in the output stage.of the amp.

SOURCE: I have a Marshall G100R CD Amp, and I appear to have blown one or more fuses. My question is what is the best, and easiest way to gain access to the fuses in my amplifier?

You said, the best and easiest way.
Since a blown fuse indicates a short, your amp will blow as many fuses as you put in it, until you remove the short.
If it appears that you blew fuses, the main amp would appear to be the cause of the short. The best and easiest way to solve the problem is to take it to the Marshall dealer or an electronics repair shop. In the future, do not connect or disconnect speakers with the power turned on, and don't connect more speakers than the manufacturer recommends. The AC input fuse is inside, very near the end of the AC cord. If the glass is discolored, the fuse link inside the little fuse exploded. If it went out that violently and you replace it without repairing the short, you will get to see it blow again. The reason the fuse is inside is because in the brief second that it takes for the fuse to go out additional damage can be done in the world of solid state electronics. That's since 1972,
