He played about one note and blew both the speakers. No fire, but it was still quite impressive!
That was when I learned that hi-fi and musical instrument amp and speaker ratings are *completely* different things. Luckily the speakers were just cheap ones I'd acquired and I then replaced them with the Wharfedales I still have and use (with the same amp) to this day, but I've never played guitar or bass through them again at anything above whisper volume.
