| Is there a solid fuse-like item that I can use in place of a fuse, to bypass it? Do you want to give your insurance company an excuse not to pay you if your equipment starts a fire, albeit a small chance ? I agree in principal but disagree on the last bit. It isn't a small chance that the insurance would be invalidated it i... | |
| For all you Bose 901 Haters! Not my cuppa cha. Now give me the speakers right behind them...! | |

| 30 to 50 watts seems to be all I desire I drive really low efficiency speakers (86 dB electrostatics) with 45 watts (big Class A watts, but only a max of 45 of them) with no need for any more. | |
| Do we really know what "Live" music sounds like? The majority of my attendance at concerts is to classical or folk, all acoustic. The question as to the younger set is well framed though - I wonder how many attend non electrified concerts. | |
| Amp will not power off Yeah - I had an old Belles amp that had a power surge on turn on that would weld the switch contacts together after awhile. I sidestepped the problem by using a heavy duty power strip - if it ever did the contacts in that in I could just replace ... | |
