I am not talking about Rice crispies either. There was also that foul stench of burnt up electronics. It is now in the shop awaiting repairs. \:\(

On the plus side I can say that I heard more surround effects with the mains and center hooked up to the A1400, freeing up the Denon to drive the 3 surround channels.

Further results to come with a run of the A1400 at mojo's house next weekend and possibly icehawk's this weekend.


That does really suck but look on the bright side…you didn’t fry Mel’s A1400-8.
