Bifwynee, my Ref 5SE output goes to Bryston 10B-SUB, then to McIntosh MC452 (driving Focal Utopia 3 Diablo) and JL Audio Fathom f113.
I contacted Ron C of McIntosh through email and he confirmed ARC preamps work well with McIntosh amps. But no success contacting ARC technical support yet due to time zone (I am in Malaysia) as no ARC email contact is available.
After adding the Cooler Master 12V PC chassis fans (1200rpm and they are really quiet) at the left side of Ref 5SE, no more over heating issue.
