Hello all. I have an Audiophonics LPA-S400ET power amp and I was wondering if it has any of these so called protection features I've been hearing about. Does anyone know what it cannot protect against? Main reason I ask is I have this headphone amp (Sterling SHA4) I got awhile ago at a guitar...

Hey everyone, second post here. I bought a used Denon S540H along with two KEF Q150 speakers, and while the sound is pretty great there is a lot of static noise that is coming through at medium-to-high volumes. I also feel like the sound could be a lot better. Aside from that, I hate the Heos...
