Isnt the powerguard supposed to prevent things from going in smoke? The gain is set half way,,
The sucker was very hot to the touch...
Now,,,should I let it cool and try to see if it starts up, or should I just disconnect and send to McIntosh or my local repairman (who is quite good and will fix it for free)
What could have happened to this amp? i wasnt going very loud...!!!
DARN IT!!!!!!!
Something must have been wired improperly, did you wire it or have a shop do it? A Mac should not just blow up like that. Have you run it before this applicaton or was it the first time you've used it?
This is a terrible thing!
Hang a board from your rear dash amd mount the amps on it too.
