As far as "matching problems", if you are referring to mismatched gain

No, I'm talking about impedance matching problems. On the input is not
a big issue... only reducing the available drive... but a mismatch on
the output is critical... and causes big problems with excessive
transistor heating... leading to premature failure.


Ok. So what does that have to do with the difference between a PCB
mounted amp and a chassis-wired amp?
