The Lord works in mysterious ways :D

As Toll_Free said in another thread !
Those types of amps have taken the life of many :(

Lightning took the life of that amp before it could take yours
or someone close to you.
Sorry for your loss however if it was me, I would consider
it a blessing...

The Dealer said that.
