Thank you, for your feedback I was told it was a little higher end than what it seems. I ended up passing on it. it was either this one or a kenwood KD-5066 with no cartage, I passed on both. I am holding out for a Dual type with the Ultra low mas...

Well I did do all them things with the bulb tester to the main amp, did the same with the  preamp,hooked up the unit, used some cheap speakers and everything actually worked. Only issue was I had to use the rear outputs on the preamp to the main a...

So will 1.0 amp or 1.5 amp be to big.

Well I did get that light bulb tester made. It was really quite easy. I hooked it up to the amp,turned it on,used a 25 watt light bulb only put out  49 ac volts, ran it for 10 -12 hours.The second bulb was 65 watts, it put out 93 volts, will let i...

The power input of the three transformers were 12 volt , with the 200ma ,1000ma, and 1800ma rating. should I look for for something bigger than that 1800ma?

I did order a speaker protection board, T-type 30 amp relays. The power input says 10v- 16volt. I have found three different plug in transformers to power this unit. They are rated from 200ma, 1000ma, and one at 1800ma. which one should I use?

Ok first, I will get that module, that sounds like a realistic item to save my speakers. And I did read through that post on that site about that light bulb tester. And for the most part the assembly sound pretty basic. I don't  think I should hav...

And this light bulb tester will work to charge the capacitors, so I should not need to buy a Variac for this one time use?

Is this the one that I should get? In the above mentioned site. The owner's manual says the amp is 200 watt per channel,I believe. So this module will be big enough?   And yes I see the 12 volt connection for the transformer. That will be no probl...

Now addressing the issue about using a Variac to power up this amp and preamp. how big of a unit do I need, I did look on amazon and saw lots of them, but have no Idea what I should use. And really don't want to spend a lot of money on something I...

I did look at that speaker protection module on ebay, there are a few, what size would I need. What would be the best choice? I have never even seen any of of these, I will get whatever one needed to protect my speakers whatever the cost. How does...

I did finally find an owners manual And it even said one should put an inline fuse in the loop, to prevent that from happening. They recommend a 1, 11/2, to a 2 amp. any thoughts about this. I just don't want to put heavy of a fuse and have the cu...

Thank you You are right, it does have the outputs and the inputs labeled,  it has been quite a while and I did not want to burn anything up. So again thank you.
