That was the insight I was seeking! I certainly don't mind experimenting with this, and find it very comforting the only detriment will be a blown capacitor if the voltage is too high. I didn't know if the blown capacitor would also destroy other components in the amplifier.I am familiar with the smell of blow capacitors. In my younger years in the Army I was a Patriot Missile System technician. There were 3-4 capacitors/filters at the front of the RADAR. Invariably, one of these would blow every 3-5 months. The smell was quite pronounced, and he mess was profound. But, these were huge friggin capacitors I don't know the value, but they were the size of a kids shoe-box and cased in metal. Anyhow, the experiment will happen in my workshop - not in the living room.
Thanks very much for responding!
