I have a V-1xe and it is cool in standby and runs warm but not hot while in use. I used to have Levinson which ran very warm at idle, and hot during use.
Ayre amps - cool running?
Can anybody with experience with Ayre amplification tell me how hot or cool they run? I've had a big Krell, which was very warm when on but no music, and downright hot when actively being used, and I've had big Simaudio monos which were cool when on but no music, and only slightly warm under most conditions.
