Cube was built like a Chinese puzzle box inside. Really tightly packed.
I NEVER had mine overheat in 20+years from new to sold. I also kept it OUT as much as possible and when in a cabinet, by itself with as much space above/below as possible. At one point, I built a FAN for it. I used a small AC boxer fan and built a shroud fitting the BACK of the amp. So when I was playing at the highest levels, the fan was pulling air thru the amp, keeping it cool. The speakers in question were Magnepan MG-1s and would use the entire amps output......
Too much is never enough
