X150.5 Owners Manual

Speaker cables should be firmly tightened down at the speaker output

terminals, but do not use a wrench. These connectors will not with-

stand unrealistic foot-lbs of torque. Hand tightening without exces-

sive force is plenty.

Hardware Facts

So how long will this hardware last? It is our experience that, barring

abuse or the odd failure of a component, the first things to go will be

the power supply capacitors, and from experience, they will last 15 to

20 years before needing replacement. Fortunately these components

die gracefully; typically with years of warning and are easily replaced.

After that, the longevity will depend on the number of operating ther-

mal cycles, but we can attest to having had amplifiers operating in the

field in excess of 20 years with no particular mortality except capaci-

tors. We don’t have good information beyond that. More to the point,

we would suggest that you not worry about it. This is a conservatively

built industrial design, not a tweaky tube circuit run on the brink of

failure. If it breaks, we will simply get it fixed, so sleep well.
