  Rich,

Just a comment on what you said here - ALWAYS use a stereo plug in the 
rear speaker jack.
Using a mono plug has been responsible for the demise of several K2 
audio amplifiers.
While this problem was supposed to be corrected with some resistor 
changes, I would advise all to take the conservative path and change the 
speaker plug for a stereo plug - of course, you would wire only to the 
tip and the shell, so it is still a mono connection, but the plug is a 
stereo type.  The open ring should not cause damage.
