What makes a consumer level pre-amp different? I know some pre-amps "pop" and i know quite a few subwoofers that "thump" when you first turn them on and they never blow anything right? That would suggest that every time you are turning on your Sony you run the risk of blowing something. Quite a few have delays, but not all do. Bearcat M.
