I think that was a different Matsui that was subject to a recall where the mains barrier was compromised. The thread was originally concerning the 1420/40/80 series of receivers which were very reliable and predictable in their habits. The Onwa chassis had the poor capacitors, but I've never known them cause a fire.
To go back to the Matsuis, did anyone else find the picture on the text version (1480) gave the impression of a flat tube? It must have been the processing in the decoder as the tubes were always fine.
