Luxman 590axii ventilation


Question for other class A owners out there. I’m keen on picking up a Luxman 590axii but my placement is limited to a cabinet shelf with an open back/front with about 1” of clearance above the amp. I can add some ventilation holes to the shelf above, but will be limited by a center channel speaker sitting on that shelf. Am I asking for trouble with a class a amp?

thanks!

Best scenario as other has alluded to is to have that unit wide out in the open with maximum ventilation / aeration.
besides seeing it in its full glory is half the pleasure. It doesn’t deserve to be encased in any such way.
I say keep the 590AX II and MAKE IT WORK even if it means a general reconfiguration.

Class A all the way!
