MBL 9008A users


I am curious to know how hot your 9008A amps run. The heat sinks on mine get quite hot. You can place and leave your hand on the heat sinks near the rear of the amps, but if it was only a little hotter you could not. I am running them in stereo mode. They sound great, but I am curious to know if this is normal. The only reason for my concern is that I had heard that they run only moderately warm. Your experience will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time.

I would only worry if one runs hotter than the other. Also, a low impedance load may cause them to run warmer.
Mine are very cool to the touch. It sounds like you have a pair, therefore you should be running them in mono mode.

Hi Guys,
I want to thank you for your responses and to those who responded privately. I spoke with David Alexander earlier today and he is going to help me figure out if there is a problem. Fortunately I live in Southern California and the MBL repair center isn't far away. Again thanks to all.
Best
