Route the hot air output from them into your heating ducts! Toss the thermistor and just hook the fan to your house thermostat . Money spent on electricity will be saved on gas. The water cooled Aleph dudes can heat water for the hot tub instead. Gee the economic consiquences of owning an Aleph might actually be pretty positive. Comming soon, Mr Aleph Coffee Maker brewing full High Fidelity Coffee!

Lets see a Krell pull off any of these feats. Well ok, they could if you're into drinking ice coffee I guess.

In Houston the homes do not have heating ducts. They come with two sets of airconditioning ducts. Mine is running now.
170F is high. I backed off idle current on my amp at 140F or 60C. But I think it did sound better with the current higher. May have to go back now for our two weeks of winter.

Hey George, May I assume the family is still out of town. You crazy animal. What are you doing on the internet at this hour.

He's right. We use the heater once or twice a year here. and that's usually because we put the A/C themostat too low and the house got chilly overnight

Hey Nickolas Check tis one out for my 200 watt plus Aleph X. I need to finish a lot of other thigs before I start.

The thermister idea is to go with the variable bias. I don't want the fan to run any more than needed and I'm going to put a knob and/or switch to decrease the bias for background music. I'm sure my wife will want to listen sometimes when I'm not home.

Mine is running about 141 F or 60 C. Nickolas, what kind of case is that you are using? My wife likes the amps as they warm the room up, it is always to cold for her. Mike

from some pc cooling site:




Supercomputers with massive parallel CPU and memory arrays are often immersed completely in a chilled, non-conductive liquid such as silicone or mineral oil.
I propose the ultimate "case-mod" and overclockers dream: A computer case that manages to separate, contain, and seal all non-moving components of a desktop PC in a tank of cooled liquid.

A Papst Fan? Thats funny..... I just replaced a 3 phase outer rotor type Pabst motor today on an Ernamann Projector at a theatre that I service. That motor was a tad over 900.00 U.S. our cost! Really beautifully made motor!!!!
