Thanks Peter, whenever I was turning up mine the other day that is exactly what I was doing. What may seem hot to one person may seem lukewarm to another, so I can see where conflicting thoughts may come into play.

Thanks Peter, that is my judgementt as well, and why I stated that in my expierance with seven differant Halos, none ran hot. Pehaps I just got the only ones that Parasound made that does not run hot.

I run my Denon 2802 at reference levels, and it never runs hot. I have my cable box sitting on top of it and about half an inch on the sides. It always runs great for me. I dont know what you guys are doing to burn up your amps.

Who mentioned burning up amps, I was replying to BigWill about his question if my Halos ran hot.

That is pretty much the way I have always heard on how to judge if an amp is running hot.My Rotel amp only gets warm when I am running it hard.

While over at Dennis house during the Sub calibration, I ran soom Temp. checks with a caibrated digital Temp meter and got a temp reading on his Halos Running the front two M80ti speakers of 116 and 118 degrees respectively. These guys of Dennis just don't run the least bit hot this was after at least 5 hours of running.

How about the MA Silver center? It seemed a touch sibilant - anybody else hear that?
I have an MA silver center with my s10 fronts. I've watched lot of movies on it in the last week since getting it but I haven't noticed any sibilance yet. What movie(s) did you notice this on. I'd like to give them a try and see if mine does this too.

We briefly demo-ed the last of the Lord of the Rings movies. The scene had that Gollum creature and the little hobbits. The center was positioned on a shelf and surrounded by other speakers - far from ideal. That's why I sought an opinion here.
