Hi, Welcome!

Jim

PS My Yamaha had a melt down when I ran it to hard under a less than 4 ohm load, it is now refered to as "Toast" .

That sucks.Grab the peanut butter and jelly..to go with the "toast". Yhis the same one with the broken binding posts?

Yes, it worked fine for over a year till the melt down. I have yet to open it up to view the damage. I have an Adcom GFA-585 I am waiting to send to Echowars, then I'll worry about the Yamaha, I had thought of possibly bi-amping the two into my Legacy's.

Were you in Avionics? Probably a bad question with your user name. I have a trap shooting friend who is in avionics with our local fighter group.

Yes I was in Intermediate Level Repair of all the electronics systems aboard the F-15 Eagle..Primary job was repair of the electronics warfare systems on board the aircraft as well as maintaining the various automated -*test*-('") stations. Used on a daily basis..Spectrum analyzers,waveform digitizers,average power meters,freq.synthesizers,peak power meters, DPO's ,stand alone O'scopes,Arbitrary waveform generators,pulse modulators,timer/counters,freq.counters,yada,yada,yada....Most of the stuff I worked with was microwave oriented gigahertz stuff.

I was a firefighter in the AF from 83-90, we had to put all your electronic fire out.
