Reducing room TEMP. when using tube equipment.

Hello
I live in California where it has been darn HOT. I Bi-Amp with old Audio Research D76A tube amps (Two). My problem:
When the Temp. goes into the 80’s, I really can not turn on my System. The room temp. is just too uncomfortable. As you might guess I do not have air conditioning. Has anyone tried to use the new PC computer cooling systems to remove the heat. I know very little about these liquid-cooling systems. Any other ideas? The flip side is … I love’m in the winter.

Regards
Ron

Ron, why not invest in a portable air condition?

If it allows you to use your system when it's hot consider it money well spent on a "tweak".

I'm considering one myself. I haven't turned on my system in over a month 'cause of the heat. Listening while coated in a sheen of your own sweat and sitting in a pool of it is NOT conducive to an enjoyable listening session!
