I am sorry that you interpret this as a meltdown. The momentum amplifiers normal operating temperature is 42 -44 degrees c(107-111f) the temperature rise to 48c (118f) is inconsequential. The amplifier in question failed from a non-related component failure in the power on circuit. The Momentum amplifier is designed to shut down at 70 c (158f) The unit under test was not close to that temperature. Many amplifiers operate temperatures at 70c(158f) and above. If John had continued his test the second amplifier would have passed without any problems. The Momentum amplifier has more than enough thermal head room for any load or any speaker. I was unable to give a comment
Until the unit was returned to me from testing.
Thank you for your concern.
