McCormack DNA-1 runs hot


I would like to know if someone had any experience with a McCormack DNA-1 amp running hot. I just got one used (updated rev. B) and I am using it with a pair of Magnepans MG-12. It becomes hot when on event without music.

Thanks.

That might be fine for Ayre but heat damages parts like capacitors. I routinely have to rebias McCormack amps back to factory spec. At idle you should have no problem keeping your hands on the heatsinks for 10 secs at least.
