Tube amps covers on or off

I just brought myself a new onix sp3. Unfortunately I have to put it at the bottom of my glass rack. This little beast runs a little hot and I am a little afraid that the temper glass may crack eventually with the heat. Is this a stupid concern? If I leave the covers off will the unit run cooler overall?

I have my SP3 on an open cabinet with the covers off because I think it looks better that way. I would think it should run slightly cooler without the covers. If your shelves are adjustable, give it as much breathing room as you can.

Enjoy your SP3. I love mine.
