My guess is that a sheet metal floor pan is no longer sufficient for passive cooling of 1.2K to 1.4K watts.
From the manual:
1) Assumes a thermal system of adequate size to keep the amplifier module well within its thermal recommended operating range.
2.4 Thermal Requirements
While the 1ET9040BA has very low idle losses and high overall efficiency, adequate cooling is essential for
sustained power delivery. Careful consideration must be given to the design of the thermal system in order to
achieve desired output power specifications. 1ET9040BA's power efficiency and power loss is illustrated in
Figure 12 and Figure 13
