Yes I meant in the power amp stage. And I swear I saw a Marantz that
was like that, in fact I probably got the print on the PC but I have
alot of Marantz prints. I was actually surprised to see it, and it
was the only one. I remember it was a lower end model but it still
had the Marantz look.

**I could be wrong, but I doubt it. Luxman, absolutely. Quite a few of
theirs employed such a system. If you figure out which Marantz, let me
know. I have pretty much every service manual for every model.
