PROTECTION CIRCUIT

The newly developed protection circuit is completely effective and
prevents damage which may be caused by short-circuiting at the speaker
terminals or the power output circuit of the amplifier. When a
short-circuit occurs, this protection circuit will function automatically
to protect the power output transistors. If the power output transistor

fails, this protection circuit will function automatically to protect the
speakers.
