This is wrong.  I'm sitting here looking at the top of my SB-220 with the
cosmetic cover off.  There are no gaps in the perforated aluminum shield
over the entire top of the amplifier.

I would never have suggested operating the amplifier without the cosmetics
if any HV was exposed.

Very truly yours, and not suicidal,
