Derek: You did a great job in following the steps laid out to you. I really enjoyed these past two days of PL Countdown.

Nice job of coaching Derek through the final stages of breathing life into his new amp, Lee, Joe, and George!

Nando.

Thanks Nando....that's what this place is all about....

Remember , amp pots are logrithmic, the 2 o'clock on up i s gonna get way loud way fast...

Just finding my ground, I'm 110% happy with this. Hearing volumes and sonics like never before. Thanks again Lee and Joe!

Agreed, Ron. My house would be on fire with a WOPL at 3 oclock position.

Doug, I have only had the 500 up to 1 o'clock and the CV's started letting me know they were getting uncomfortable by tripping internally. They are rated at 300w each

It will get better. When they are fully broken in, the WOPL's are just amazing

Warm, has not got hot yet while driving. I'll give it a bit more for you. Remember there is a fan at the back cooling it. 1500RPM.

 

[laatsch55]

No that's Ok D2, just wondering if you were paying attention, and of course you were....
