Nice one!
tnx for the tip.  It's only a 75w stereo amp to drive 2 sets of speakers
hopefully.

The cupboard does get a bit warm at the moment.  It's a top cupboard in out
kitchen, with holes out the top & back to let air circulate - problem is,
heat rises & it's already at the top of the room :(

don't really want to end up sticking an extractor in there as any noise
would be unacceptable.....
