I looked at the picture of the 5065 board you sent me and I need to pull one of my amps open to compare , but I do see that the resistor goes to the base of that to92 cased black transistor so I will try and figure it out from that in a bit if I can.

The other thing is that the resistor you question is a metal film type and they can look pretty darn bad yet still check out close the there original resistance and work!

You might want to ohm check it and report back , but the other need is to find out why it burned up in the first place, and all I can tell you for sure is that the black transistor to its left is not original and may not be right for the circuit!

Can you read a number off of that transistor?
