The issue is not a matter of cooling the amps. The vast majority of the heat is being generated by the tubes so you have to get that heat out of the room to improve the situation. Some type of box to put the amps in with a dryer vent tube to exhuast out the window or into another room with a quiet fan on the exhuast end to pull air through the box. Perhaps not elegant or pretty but you have to get rid of the heat, you can't cool the amps.
Reducing room TEMP. when using tube equipment.
Hello
I live in California where it has been darn HOT. I Bi-Amp with old Audio Research D76A tube amps (Two). My problem:
When the Temp. goes into the 80’s, I really can not turn on my System. The room temp. is just too uncomfortable. As you might guess I do not have air conditioning. Has anyone tried to use the new PC computer cooling systems to remove the heat. I know very little about these liquid-cooling systems. Any other ideas? The flip side is … I love’m in the winter.
Regards
Ron
