Thanks to all for the advise and suggestions. While selecting a new amp based on how much heat I can get off the heat sinks appeals to my sense of whimsy, I'll have to pass on that idea. If, for no other reason than the effects of heat production, which would be very welcome in the months of December to March, would prove to be equally unwelcome in the months of June to September. Actually the heat situation is pretty manageable and turning the heater down to the lowest level when I go in and start listening works very well and produces no noise that I can hear. On top of the heat off my amplifiers I also gain heat from some tube preamplifiers as well as two large candles. There are times I don't need the heater at all, but I have played music at full volume, with the heater at full volume too.
I guess I can live with a Bryston 4b st. Power-wise, it's just a touch more powerful than my ADCOM so everything should be fine. Hopefully, I can get it to sound as good as my ADCOM. (That was actually a very serious statement.)
Thanks!
