Factories Can get it wrong, Get Factories back to common sense instead of saving a few cents on production costs,

for a more reliable amp. However there is money to be made in non-warranty repairs by the factory also......

Just replace it with what works as already stated .

As jim said "

The  1N5408 has a 200 amp surge rating..and the  6A10 /
PM-600  series of diodes have a 400 amp  surge rating.  The  10AO8 has a
600 amp surge rating.
"

Bigger diode amp rating = better protection without diode suicide.

Simple

Just use the right diode to begin with..and that's not the 1N400X series.


Not sure how to interpret your comment.  It comes with a 1N4001 from the factory.
