I'm about to purchase one of these power amps to drive a set of magnepan 2.7qrs that I have. Im currently powering them with a pair of 100w monoblocks so I gather i dont need to worry about tripping the thermal protection if i dont listen at stupidly high volumes? Its only for use in a small...

I got an awesome bargain in a pawnbroker a couple of days ago $13 I dont think they knew what it was-here in Australia this sort of gear is more expensive than in the USA too It works perfectly but I need some advice on cleaning the inside it has an insane amount of dust in it and I pulled the...
