[QUOTE="psycho72, post: 781106, member: 558429"] I was at Elite and I saw a thread with a PPI Art Series for sale and he mentioned that it's input circuitry was modified to accept up to 9v preouts. So I asked him what he meant and he told me that older amps input circuitry can easily fry if you put some high volt preouts to them. Now I quickly crapped my pants and grabbed my shopping list because I have been trying to get a pair of PPI Art Series or PG amps to run with an Eclipse 8053 with balanced line converter dealey bob (turns the 6-8v outs from the hu into 3-16v outs). Is this true about the input circuitry? Is this only an issue with decade old hardware or is this an issue with all amps that are'nt say Zapco or Brax or some other million dollar amp setup? Is this only an issue when you turn the volume up too loud? Or is this one of those gain things where if I simply set it up with a multimeter I have nothing to worry about? [/QUOTE]
