No problems. Is your 410 a 4 ohm cab? That would be good.

I had mine light up like an arc welder and burn out for no apparent reason the second time i used it. I guess this could happen to any amp but i dont think i will be getting another one. I do love the pf speakers though.

I've used my PF350 on a few gigs now and it's been a real champ so far. Sorry about yours, but it's definitely a fluke that it happened, and it's covered by warranty.

I took my pf350 back to the store i got it from and they were more than happy to take it back even though i lost my bill of sale "they had it on their computer" I figured if they were that good about the warrantee i bought a pf500 and will keep the new 350 for a backup. I drove the 500 hard at last rehersal through a pf115 and it worked great but what surprised me was the amp was still cold to the touch after running hard all night. I think i am going to love this head.
