Ok, having chatted to a fellow forumite, I feel confident enough to explain myself.

I have noted that when I play system for extended periods or if its insanely hot the amps get pretty warm.  I have tested it with a thermal camera so know exactly where the heat is generated.  I have bought two little 'computer' fans and made up a proper little system to turn them on and off.

The question is, what is an optimal temperature to run?  I am not blowing the air directly on to them but merely just allowing a better airflow through the cabinet.  But I don't want to make it to cool either.  I have proved the fans with the thermal camera's and it works a real gem.

Any ideas?  What is the 'safe' zone?
