Have just built an amp, using 2 x 300VA EI transformers, they get hot, not playing music, probably about 70 Celsius, in a relatively well ventilated case. Not much hotter playing music.I plan to ventilate better, and maybe use fans, I hear they run hotter than toroids, should I expect this heat when idling, is it excessive, what should I aim for temp wise?
They look very impressive!!!!!
Amp is SS class A/B..
Any comments!
