While I tend to agree with Mr. 405, I need to add that amp temp is subject to VERIFICATION. IOW? Keep an eye and finger on 'em. Should stay fairly cool but you never know.
I took an InfraRed image of my amp from the top. ONE hot spot which I think is over part of the PS. I'd have to compare that picture with a case-open shot of the same amp.

There is holes in top and bottom of most sound equipment. If it moves air Push or pull...it will also move dust thru it no matters in which way it blows... I have ordered one and i will try to setup something to prevent this to happen. Open you computer and you will see that fans do move lots of dust around, animals hair and other... True enough! I usually take my Sherbourn C-12 units out and clean them yearly. Small price to pay to keep all moving well and clean. My 5 units are about 5-7 years old I think. Can’t remember! LOL Big Dan and I were discussing Emotiva building similar units recently. They were remarkably built units. They could be configured to move air almost anyway you’d like including the ability to have air moved out a hose to exhaust elsewhere. Built like tanks. Thermostatically controllable or by trigger. |

I have my unit running for a month and a half now with nothing installed to prevent sh** being blown thru it. I will let it run for another month and have look inside my Musical Fidelity M6SI and the fans to se what kind of stuff it pumped in...

Cat or Dog hair will be an awful mess. |

I have both... So it should be interesting. But my stuff is in a room that they don't access too often.

If your pets disappered TODAY, unless you went nuts with cleaning, you'd still find cat hair in 5 years. That stuff gets everywhere!
I have a very good suggestion but would require some aggressive DIY and may not work properly with the fans AS ISSUED.
