Ken, I have not ignored your post. There is nothing mentioned about this model on sony web. Take a look at the unit and give me the Protect IC number. Just follow the speaker protect relay coil trace, it should lead you to the IC. I most likely have the specs on the IC, which could help you at least confirm or eliminate the protect circuit.
