    Is it possible to run a PC fan on the 12V trigger of an AVR?

    Ah, yes, definitely can't hurt. All the coolers I tested were 15" ones I think.

    Is it possible to run a PC fan on the 12V trigger of an AVR?

    Ah, sorry about that. If you go further in the thread, you will see that I eventually settled on an Aircom T10. This is because as soon as the AVR is powered down, the USB ports also power down, and I noticed quite a bit of heat soak, resulting in temps rising again. The beauty of the T10 is...

    those work very well, I did a comparison of a few ones I bought from TakeALot (bored during lockdown): https://www.avforums.co.za/threads/receiver-in-cabinet-temps.83191/page-3#post-959735

    Update: received the AVR back this morning. Hooked up everything and so far so good after 8 hours of operation. Still going to get a decent power amp for it though.

    finally heard back from them, not the PSU as I first suspected, but the L/R amp module: I think my plan to get a power amp for all channels should go ahead. FYI, AV Imports make use of Hi-Tech Service Lab

    Advice/recommendations for a power amplifier

    Erm, I can't use this cable to connect the pre-out to the amp, right? Wireworld Chroma Digital Audio Cable: https://www.ultrasound.co.za/collections/digital-cables/products/wireworld-chroma-digital-audio-coaxial-cable Any recommendations on good interconnects that won't break the bank?

    Well, there is that... But if the T778 dies (completely) at some point in the future, I will get a surround processor.

    Advice/recommendations for a power amplifier

    Hi everyone, Due to the issues with my T778, and based on what other owners have done to mitigate any further failures, I am looking to offload the load from the unit to a power amp. My setup is quite simple: pair of PSB Imagine T2s in bi-amp mode, PSB Image C5 centre, Monitor Audio Bronze FX...
