Setting your stereo/amp controls

David,
That's unfortunate and I'm sorry for your loss.
Swing it by a stereo shop if you have a local one that's good. They should be able to help for a nominal fee.
If you know someone with a scope then it can be used to visually identify the signs of clipping and remove any subjective perception. Again, a good stereo shop is also likely to have a scope. Once someone with an educated ear qualifies for you what clipping sounds like, you will forever be self-sufficient.
