Yes, but when you read the whole post, it's clear that I'm suggesting that as a last resort. "Just do something - anything!"

The case you linked to earlier was an interesting read - I didn't follow that one at the time. I haven't read the whole thread - it runs to 101 posts - so I didn't get to the point you were making. The page numbers you suggested don't help, as I've changed the settings to give me 50 posts per page, and can't remember what the default is - but give me some post numbers and I'll take a look.
Either way, it's relatively unusual for a mains lamp limiter to cause problems with the basic power amplifier circuit IME. And whatever happened, it's surely preferable to toasting the replacement output devices?
Chaps, can we leave the infamous Sony sets out of this as they are completely OT - start a new thread if you wish to remember the "joys" of them. Thanks.
