Thanks Mark

Hi Mark
My view is most disco sound equipment like CD players, mixers, amplifiers and lighting equipment will be ok with a 'hard test'. The exception is power amplifiers with built in signal processors, usually identified by the presence of a LCD display. I always play safe & use a 'soft test' on these.
There is nothing stopping you 'soft testing' it all if you want complete peace of mind.
