Hi there . I use the protection shown in the picture for ax14, but when the bass goes higher, the capacitor marked with a red circle inflates.

There are at least 2 mistakes on this PCB. 4148 at the left of NE555 must be reversed and also 4th leg of NE555 must be connected with 680K resistor, 100/63 cap must be non-polar. Also sensitivity on negative input voltage of this protection is weak (about 4-5v). But I used it in couple projects and it saved my speakers couple times though...

Hi. Thanks for the help.
But even with the correct component direction, the same error is a bit bass, capacitors are over.
I'll look at the transistors and ne555.
