Pass Labs cooling noise

 I have a recently purchased Pass Labs INT-60 that is making periodic clanking noise as it is cooling down on turn off.

My many previous non- Pass amps were always quite, Mac’s and  even my Parasound JC5.

Any ideas before reaching out to the dealer/company?

BTW the Pioneer S-1ex’s sound amazing with this setup with the OS Audio Directstream and Oppo 205.

I have this amplifier and it does make noise when cooling. I never turn it off except for system changes. It sounds better when always left on.
Putting in a Synergistic Research Blue fuse makes a nice improvement and is a one minute job.
