A few weeks ago I was testing a new power amp and accidentally connected the CDP direct to it instead of the preamp!
Luckily this was through RCA out rather than XLR or I think damage would have been inevitable. It obviously could blow your speakers in the same way as listening at excessive volume always could. But if they seem ok, you're alright. Keep listening and hopefully there'll be no problems.
True Blue:Your ears??
Oops I was meant to put this in the hifi forum not the headphone one, yeah if I was on headphones it wudda done my ears a wrongun!
I was listening to some music with my headphones on a few weeks ago,late at night. My wife,who was in bed,appears in the doorway looking less than happy. Totally forgot to turn the sub off...
