So you may want to take that under advisement.


Hah. I do appreciate the info. I had some early issues with my Ref 250's but this particular Ref 150 has continued to perform without issue and as I mentioned it's six years old. I believe some of the magic comes from the Teflon caps so for now I am going to just "let it ride"

I do wish you the best with getting your amp all corrected. I do find it to be a very good amp...hope you can enjoy it soon
