I couldn't get the R channel to reach 0.6V, topped out at 0.35V on both resistors so I'll have to take it apart and check what is wrong. The other one came up on spec almost instantly but there is no way in hell that this chassis is large enough for the amount of heat it needs to dissipate. It also started to smell a bit after a couple of minutes but that can be normal with thermal paste or at least I sure hope it was the past. \ Does anybody have a link to the Hi-fi 2000 Pesante Dissipante specs?
