I’m pretty sure ZM mentioned this in the past, but it can also be worthwhile playing around with a makeshift ‘gasket’ to optimize airflow. I used some cheap 20mm foam for sealing windows. Works nice
in fact, it is not necessary
I tried and it's all the same ............. unless in case that your amp is really scorched, needing any help, badly

By the way I'll put a DAC downside.
@Cody: 12cm computer fan for cabinet. Sleeve bearing type. 12Vdc with a simple SMPS
simplest way of decreasing voltage ( and you'll need it) is just put enough 1N400* in series - each eating almost 0V6
you can put them inside SMPS, or wherever - under the board
