Amplifier Operational (until I broke it)

I finally plucked up courage to wire up my birthday present today. It is an home-made amplifier with lots of inputs and outputs and no labels or manual for idiots like me.

Bollocks. I think I just broke it. It was happily playing a song and then stopped all of a sudden. Maybe it has a "Shitty Britpop" recognition unit built in? "Pulp? I'm not amplifying that crap". I think I'm going to start to cry :-(

It should still be covered by warranty... just send it back to have it repaired! :-)

Ah, it was just that I had set the supply voltage to 8V, which was too low. Now it is running very nicely with 12V :-)
