The type of fuses you need to repair your Sony STR-DE345 receiver will depend on the specific model of the receiver. However, in general, you will need two types of fuses: a main fuse and a speaker fuse.

The main fuse is responsible for protecting the overall electrical system of the receiver. It is typically a T2A (2 amp) fuse. The speaker fuse is responsible for protecting the individual speaker channels. It is typically a T3.15A (3.15 amp) fuse.

To find the specific type of fuses you need, you can consult the user manual for your receiver. The user manual will usually have a diagram of the fuse compartment and a list of the fuses that are required.

If you do not have the user manual for your receiver, you can also find the information you need online. Simply search for the model number of your receiver and the word "fuses". This should provide you with a list of the fuses that you need.

Once you have the correct fuses, you will need to replace them. To do this, you will need to unplug the receiver from the power outlet and open the fuse compartment. The fuse compartment is typically located on the back of the receiver.

Once you have opened the fuse compartment, you will need to locate the blown fuses. The blown fuses will be black and will have a broken filament. To remove the blown fuses, you will need to use a pair of needle-nose pliers.

Once you have removed the blown fuses, you can insert the new fuses. Make sure that the new fuses are the same type and rating as the blown fuses.

Once you have inserted the new fuses, you can close the fuse compartment and plug the receiver back into the power outlet. The receiver should now work properly.

If you are not comfortable replacing the fuses yourself, you can take your receiver to a qualified technician. However, replacing the fuses is a relatively simple process that you can do yourself with a little bit of patience.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
