Amps on top?


I have read that an amp should not be on your top shelf, but rather on the bottom 

Is there anything to this?  Assuming a well-isolated system throughout.  
TIA

....I need one of those in the bedroom...

(Stop that....nasty boy....)

...to drag my butt out of bed....spouse would 'preciate it.... ;)

Thinkin' 'bout going total class D....50,000 watts of funky....

A planar co. once admitted they piled up a tower of their ribbons in the desert and turned it to 11....

Was heard clearly .5 mi. away.

Bass?  Not likely, but was on the edge of an ordinance test range, so maybe the military filled in for the subs...

The locals would demand my head on a spit for the bbq...but one only fries once...

Good Morning, Starshine!

ok....where went the lights....?

                        Into swings, are we?

Law of science.

Heavier items at bottom, lighter ones higher up, duh. This discussion makes me feel stupid...

Roger Modjeski recommended at least two feet of air space above his Music Reference tube power amps. Lack of ventilation greatly reduces component (capacitors etc) lifespan. The companies that mount their output tubes on vertically-orientated circuit boards are apparently not concerned with that issue. I am.

@rodman99999 ....*L*  Well, yeah....we design, build, and install playground structures (beats a 'real' job), so it kinda comes with the turf....

In our case, playground mulch or surfacings....details, details.... ;)

MOF, got a pallet with HDG steel frames and hardware sharing our parking space.

*L* 'Someone's' got to 'do' this sort of thing...."

Once upon a while, I used to 'do' commercial graphics and signage....my 'cocktail party' quip when asked 'What do you do?' was....

"I get to tell you where to go...."

That got varied responses.... ;)

(Bay Area, later in Houston....office buildings, hospitals, garage structures...that sort of thing.  Like doing playgrounds, the kids are more appreciative of being told where and what to play on and with....*G*)

A bedroom 'lift' would help get me out of bed...not so much 'up'....I can still manage That by self, thanks for not asking.... ;) *LOL*
