When running 242s actively, does using an amp with a switch on thump damage super tweeters or tweeters?
Is there some kind of threshold/impulse measurement for each driver which indicates what kind of thump will result in damage?
Does excessive displacement of the diaphragm, i.e. to the limit, cause damage, or is heat due to prolonged excessive current the only damaging factor?
This issue has been raised on a couple of recent threads, and a comprehensive answer from an expert at Linn would be very welcome, with thanks.
Realistically, what is the likelihood of damaging drive units with typical thumpy amps?
