He didn't know that the typical HiFi has a ~200 ohm resistor in series so he fired up the amp, put the phones on and played a lick. Called me to complain about how low the volume was. I went over and found the back of the earphones discolored from the heat of the fried little speakers. He was very lucky, God does sometimes look out for fools and children. His amp was rated at something like 400W. And it had 4 pairs of push pull output tubes. I'm pretty sure the most powerful Marshall tube amp was 200 Watts. And those were the 'stereo' amps, weren't they? dxAce Michigan USA |
