Years ago I had a phenomenal American amp, it was a Phase Linear, 350 RMS per channel into 8 ohms, 450 into 4 ohms, it was feeding speakers that at the time were the only ones that could handle the power, Bose 901’s.
I had been away, leaving my set up in the hands of a friend, who had promised to take great care of it.
I think you can guess the outcome of this tale!
Upon my return, first thing I did was want to listen to my beloved Hifi , only to realise that one channel was completely dead!
Further inspection revealed that all 9 speakers in the Bose were fried, caused by the massively powerful amp going DC on one side!
Luckily AR Teledyne who were in charge of importing them at this time replaced it free of charge, as did Bose, with not just 9, but 18 brand new drivers, so a happy ending!
