A few simple rules, if followed, will avoid problems in the future. They are: 1) Try and use a clean power source, away from equipment that may produce transient spikes through the mains power, i.e. electric motors, heavy switch gear etc. 2) The SOS 7 is supplied with a three core power cord - use this with a grounded AC power source. 3) Switch on the SDS 7 last, and off first. 4) Do not place the SDS 7 on top of speaker cabinets or amplifiers which might subject it to excessive heat and vibration.
