With most inexpensive protection circuits, IF they are designed and working properly will crowbar the output to Zero volts in the event of failure. These ones on your board I believe also disable the regulator chip in the event of a short on the output lines as well.
So you should be alright as far as one can trust inexpensive Chi-Nee products...
Thanks TD...at least my new reg'r does seem to have more 'goodies' in it than the first, lol...
Wow! Just got my 6HM5s... SO much better than stock... How many hours are they rated at? Might pick up another set at this price. Thanks for the suggestions, this amp just got 5x better ^.^
Hi G8.
Now you're getting some idea of just what our humble LDs are capable of... WELL DONE!... But remember, they can do much more - something for you to look forward to?
I do believe the 6HM5s have a very good life - perhaps someone else has the true figures?...Whatever, as TD says, it ALWAYS pays to have a couple in reserve, lol...
