Heat heat and more heat??

My Jeff Rowland model 8 amp seems to be giving off more heat than I can ever remember. The sound still seems great, but the amp gets hot quicker than I ever remember ( heats up the room quickly!) and it is still warm even after several hours after shut down. Any ideas as to what's going on? Is it time for a trip back to Mr.Jeff?

I had Rowlands that got warm but never hot...never the less, if there was anything really wrong with your equipment, there are protection circuits that would shut it down.

Also to note that the XLR connections are non standard from Rowland. I had lots of weird stuff happening with my Rowland until I discovered that. I don't remember how the connections are different, but on mine there was a difference.
More to discover
