It’s the first warm weekend running my amp with 4ohm speakers. Started getting c. 2 hours playtime before the amp shuts itself off.
The amp has a new temporary home underneath my entirely unsuitable unit. It feels cooler down there & there’s more breathing space on all sides. I’ll see how well it fares this evening & the coming days. Hoping that will solve the problem, and then a proper hifi stand will have to be procured.
If the amp continues to struggle as summer rolls in, I’ll have to consider options. Will a higher powered A/B amp have the same problem at similar listening levels?
If that’s the case, I guess class D might be the end destination. Not the worst time to be in that situation if it happens, though.
Here’s my new layout. Suddenly buying a silver CDP because it was cheap feels like a short-sighted plan. Might listen to more cd’s though 😊
