[QUOTE="ultimateherts, post: 8577938, member: 658109"] I never said that as all of the Pioneer radios suffer from this. I seem to remember reading it was something proprietary: [URL="http://www.diymobileaudio.com/forum/technical-advanced-car-audio-discussion/54382-help-avoiding-blowing-pioneer-pico-fuses.html#/topics/54382?page=2"]http://www.diymobileaudio.com/forum/technical-advanced-car-audio-discussion/54382-help-avoiding-blowing-pioneer-pico-fuses.html#/topics/54382?page=2[/URL] [B]The HU grounds the RCA through the pico, so if you have power on the RCA ground from an amp/processor...that is what can blow it. Most amps should ground it, but if say your amp ground was bad...you plug in and zap. However if you blew a transformer in an amp it could fry the HU and that is why the pico is in there. I don't recall if the 880 does balanced, but then I never read all 500 pages of the manual.[/B] Sent from my HTC6535LVW using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
