Stacking XPA-1L

[threepio]

Anyone had any issues with heat and stacking a pair of XPA-1L amps?  The will be in an open room, not in a rack.

Just curious......

I have had a pair,,,,,,,,arn't they great! Statement,,,,,not a question,,,,,,,,,
No, I would not stack them, I would give them plenty of room to breath.
IMHO

Peace,

I have mine stacked with extra spacers under the feet of the top one, and if I decide to use Class A I have a fan situated beside them for cooling

Here is a pic of how I have them set up

Chad,
the XPA-5 puts out zero heat,,,,,,,I would place one of the XPA-1Ls on top of it with the spacers before I would stack the two mono blocks atop of each 
Other,,,,,,,your thought. I don't care for the fan,,,,,,just my two cents

This was my solution. Not a huge blast of air, rather a good steady slow flow to make up for a tight placement.

Hey Nick, everything is hidden and the fan was a measly $18 and has a nice low speed that is dead quiet and perfect for the job

Chuck, very clean look there, I assume your rack is where it can be seen, my ugly fan is not
