If you want to see how a bunch of the new receivers only put out ~30 watts when they go into a secret 'limp mode' with no indication that you are not getting the 135wpc you paid for......

Very interesting... thank you for sharing! I literally just bought an rz30 an hour ago. So place this after the preouts and you're good to go.

I didn't quite see the rating on the audioscience link about when exactly limp mode occurs, but it seems to be when the system is 'pushed' - I'd imagine when trying to blast your socks off

If the amp puts out more than 30wpc into 4Ω, it locks into limp mode (unless unplugged for more than 10mins).

If you have old 8Ω speakers, they might never go into limp....but 8Ω speakers are pretty rare nowadays.

The odd part is that there is no indication on the unit that you are in limp mode. The receiver just keeps working at the greatly reduced wattage.
