Thanks, thought so. I'll call the shop today to make sure they have a
replacement standing by for the weekend.

Sounds like our systems are very similar, so I know how great yours is.
The RA-02 and RA-03 sounded exactly the same to me, only the volume
doesn't get turned up so far on the RA-03. I only bought the RA-03 over
the RA-02 because it was in stock.

Oh, and the RA-02 rating of 40W seemed very conservative to me - that
amp has a lot more grunt than the figures suggest, methinks.


You definitely have a duff unit. The kids stick their CD's in which are
covered in finger prints with no trouble.

When I am alone I like to whack up the volume but with the Quads blasting I
rarely get to turn the volume control above one third without fear of
damaging my eardrums!
