I have an esoteric f03 and idle is 300 watts. It is uncomfortable to the touch for more than a few seconds. Have to turn it off when not listening here in Tampa The best of tube and solid state sq. 75 watts is a lightbulb left on
How hot is too hot?
When i leave my Parasound Hint 6 on overnight, it is hot to the touch (top grill), not warm, in the morning. There is nothing on the sides and 6 inch clearance on the top.I even tried switching the input to something nothing is connected to - like AUX or PHONO. Doesn't help. I have to turn it off now when i don't use it. No big deal, but it seems like something must be wrong to produce that much heat when not in use.
Is this normal? What part of the unit produces that much heat? What can i do?
