Good morning gentlemen. I toasted an amp last weekend, and fortunately the good guys at POLK audio are sending me another amp to replace the one I cooked. I dodged a bullet there, and am grateful they have agreed to help me out, despite my unit being outside of warranty. This got me re thinking my mounting, and I want to do something different with the new unit so that I don't have more issues in the future. We run at high levels for long periods of time, so the amp gets a work out. What I am considering is a computer fan of some sort, mounted to a board or piece of lexan behind the amp. Naturally I would space the amp and fan off the mount board, so air could flow around and hopefully keep heat build up down. Has anyone done this, or seen it done? Additionally, can anyone give me some direction on a good fan that will do the trick? I have zero clue what I am looking at on amazon. They are pretty inexpensive, but I want a quality component that I don't ever have to worry about again.
