Tharkun, have you though about a couple of cooling fans? mabe 2 or 3? that would be a cheep fix to the problem, but then again, if you do change out the amps and get 400$ back, that would be even more economical

Appreciation the fan idea, I have not resorted to fans yet, tying to avoid that simply because of space, the Halo's are 20" in depth, add interconnects, and they are close to filling the cabinet, and the cabinet does not have much clearance when in the wall recess. One option is I can put fans in the wall behind the cabinet, since the garage is on the other side, and would have cooler air supply from their, and I could filter that air, the house has an air filter treatment system, so need to consider that issue. Or....put the amps in the garage ! LOL

Just wondering - did Std Pacific build your house? That stairway looks identical to mine.

Thanks for the compliment Mark, and the house was built in 2000 by Greystone homes, lesser of the evil builders. LOL
Standard Pacific has a bad rep in this area, so did not consider them when searching for a new house.

Cool. Looks like they use the same sub-contractors though.
Where are you at in soCal - I'm in Corona (actually unincorporated near Corona).

Actually a bit north of you, live in Tracy, about 60 miles east of SF, 30 miles south of Stockton. Will be in your area in June well down at Disneyland.

That's a fire rated area separation wall between the house and garage. It's a no-no to breach it with any kind of air flow pathway between the garage and house just in case you are serious.

LOL
A better plan is you house sit here, we have a pair of rather exotic Bengal cats that
don't really appreciate being left alone. Last year I hired a house/pet sitter, left her vets
name and gave her run of the house/spa/ht sytem. When returning she was over to get paid and leave the keys,
when entering the house was calling Mickey, I looked at her rather strange and reminded her
that the male Bengal's name was Mikey, she made the comment that maybe that is why he never came
when she called him the week we were gone. Not hiring her again. LOL

Thanks Mark, guess I should have went more into detail. The way the garage is, there is a 4' x 6' kinda of useless recessed area in the garage, whcih is behind the entertainment center, one thought was to put a wall in, with a fire rated door for access, and just make it part of the HT equipment area. But as I said, it was a thought. LOL
