Hi All, Hope you are having a great day.

What is the worst thing which would happen if an AMP were to fail/break.

I have a 30-35 year old AMP and at the moment it works completely fine. However what is the worse thing which would happen if it failed.

Would it blow my speakers, my ear drums in turn?

I have no idea why, but im scared of it deafening / damaging my ears if it were to fail.

AMP: TEAC A-H300

This is the only amp I have ever used and it’s really good, it was passed down to me.

    If it has some sort of speaker protection relay then you should be fine. If is functional there should be a detection circuit that will open them and ground out the signal path if something happens.
