D'Agostino Interview

Home theatre geeks just did an interview with Dan about his new company and amp. They've already done interviews with Nelson Pass, Bob Carver, Kevin Voecks, and Mike Fremer. The interviewer on all of these is Scott Wilkinson, who used to write for Stereophile, so they are audiophile-oriented conversations. You can also subscribe to the podcasts, but those are audio only.

One highlight of the D'Agostino interview: Dan was talking to a friend with military connections about cooling solutions, and the method used in the new D'Agostino amp is definitely one way to do it ;)

Other breaking news: Dan says (probably for the first time in public) that Krell amps make many rooms "unmercifully" hot :)

"I remember once we have discussed in DIY audio Pass forum, upgrading someones pass amp with active water cooling system sourced from pc market."

Did it work? My understanding is class A amps are designed to operate at the high temps. they create. As long as they have proper ventalation everything will be okay. Any attemp to over cool can cause damage or poor sound as the amp tries to rebias for the cooler condition?
