Is it BAD to place CDP/DVP on top of RCVR?

In order to make room for outboard amp to power front 2-3 channels of HT system, I would need to move DVD/CD player on top of a Pioneer vsx49tx HT rcvr. Is that BAD? The pioneer doesn't run too hot, and probably much less so with outboard amp for front 2 or 3 chnls, but will heat from rcvr affect dvd/cd player?. Any other issues (interference, platform stability, etc) from this setup that will affect playback? Thanks much...Jeff

Despite the hue and outcry I'm sure to hear, here's my advice - place the CDP on top of the receiver and monitor the situation. If the CDP or receiver seem to get too hot, take it off. It really isn't going to make much difference, sound-wise, despite what the others say. Try it, you'll see...
