Hi Richard!

Seems like it never ends ey! I guess theres just so many opinions out there, like the time alignment guys - some of the things they suggest, others will just completely ignore.

I guess the amount of upper harmonics would depend on how severly the clipping is. Its probable that extreme clipping is the case where we should be concerned, and not small amounts of clipping where damage might not occur. But theres one thing we can agree on - dont let the amp go into clipping, weather or not its because it sounds crap, or if it does any damage. To me, both are good enough reasons not to do it!

Adrian
