[QUOTE="Greg Cameron, post: 32174, member: 42"] Re: Up in smoke! The power up protect appears to be a common failure mode. Bummer. As a side note, I replaced the diaphragms in a pair of a friend's Mackie S215 passive speakers. These are a cheaper 15" 2-way. They use the P-Audio BMD450 1" drivers which are found in a plethora of lower end boxes including a lot of the Mackies. Not only were the diaphragms cooked, but the plastic phase plugs had unglued themselves and were floating around in the throat hole. Not what I would call quality stuff. After fixing up some JBL and TAD high end compression drivers recently, you really do appreciate quality stuff and why it costs what it does. Greg [/QUOTE]
