Since heat rises and the bottom of the amp is probably closed I don't think it would help much. I would investigate good quality cooling fans: otherwise I would put it on the top shelf. I know that this is inconvenient to a degree as you have more trouble loading recordings but you don't appear to have enough space for the amp to cool as it is now.
Drill holes in rack shelf to keep amp cool?
I have my first seperates system going and it sounds great but the amp gets awful warm. I was thinking about drilling some holes in the shelf it sits on right under the heat sink to get a little more air flow.
The amp is on the bottom shelf which is only a couple of inches above the floor but I figure it would help a little.
Anyone tried this?
