Need Help! My Class A Amp Is Running Very Hot
If you just bought the amp and are that worried, perhaps Class A isn't for you.  In that case, I would return the amp and buy the Class AB version instead.

Time of build not apparent
My Esoteric SACD Player has the month and year manufactured right above the serial number plate.  All AI preamps have the year manufactured built into the serial number.   
Hopefully easy question: speaker cable spade size
I don’t know your specific amp but if it were I, I would go with the 8mm ones. Here is why: I bought expensive speaker cables with spades on both ends. The manufacturer used small spades because that is what they themselves manufacture. All my amp...

Snell E-5 with my Rega Brio?
If they sound good, grab them.  I had a pair of the original many moons ago, loved them then sold them.  I can't remember why I sold them, maybe I needed the cash?
