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!

A cheap temp solution is a small USB fan that pushes air over the top and out.... Until you get the new shelf.... I have the 550ax2 on metal vitsoe 606 shelves... Next one about 4.5inches above. They get warmed by amp but experimented with fan and nada cool to the touch
