Before checking the power transistor voltages I decide to try flip/flopping the right and left power amp boards by reversing the pre-amp/amp inputs. Right to left and vice versa instead of pulling boards and then reproduced the same music and settings. Fleetwood Mac's "Rumours" played flawlessly, AC/DC's "Who Made Who" produced the bass clip on the right speaker again. So it would appear that both the right and left power amp boards and main power transistors might not be the culprit since the clip is still coming from the right HPM-100 speaker. I even moved the HPM-100 speaker wires from the speaker A terminals to the C terminals on the 1250 and even tried new wire to the speaker. So this has me stumped now. On a positive note engaging just the JBL speakers the 1250 hasn't gone into protection yet and even at a higher listening level than before with the HPM's hooked up to the speaker C terminals. :scratch2:
1250 went into protect mode listening to Peter Gabriel's CD "Shaking the Tree" with the JBL's at -28db. Some of the commons is bass and the dial lights begin to flicker. But even with both of the bass controls positioned all the way counterclockwise on the 1250 it still goes into protect just above -28 db.
