AVR Cooler Suggestion

[Deepinder27]

Hello everyone,

I am running Denon X2200W with Wharfedale 225 Series in 5.1 configuration. I feel it runs little hot. Can we cooldown the avr with help of any Fans?

Any feedback will help.

Thanks

How hot? Too hot to touch? Receivers getting slightly hot is normal, as long it doesn't burn. See that there is enough ventilation above and around the receiver with nothing placed over it, including cloth covers, etc.

Even if it gets too hot, there are inbuilt protection circuits that will shut down the amp if it starts acting like a barbecue.

On touching it feels hot. Not uncomfortably hot. Still I was wondering that a cooler might not be a bad idea. After all cooling the components will help increase their life.

Hi Deepinder27

You can ad cooling fans black ones which work directly on AC power....

Something like this....

AC Axial Cooling Blower Exhaust Rotary Fan SIZE : 4.75" inches (12x12x3.8cm) Material: Aluminium Die-cast, Color: Black MAA-KU: Amazon.in: Home & Kitchen

If it is blowing in...a lot of dust will get accumulated...if blows out, it will pull the heat out....decide on the required size and purchase...

Place the AVR on sturdy enough Laptop cooling Pad. (or 2 pads if your AVR is large)
Connect the pad wire to any USB charger or if the AVR has USB out with sufficient power. Not only looks cool but cools well too.

Laptop cooling fans placed on top of the AVR will work well.
Check coolermaster.

what about the noise level?

This is beginning of summer, hence the device getting heated is quite normal.
Play the AVR by keeping it in a open place with sufficient ventilation, if you still feel there is abnormal amount of heat, get this checked. Just in case, if it plays fine with normal heat then the problem is with ventilation which you need to ensure the air circulation is proper.

Hi

These fans are quite silent and no audible noise or anything that affects the AVR performance....else if there is space on LEFT and RIGHT sides of AVR in the cabinet....it can be kept ..if not on Top...at least some level of cooling happens....

I have face a similar problem and the solution is a exhaust fan. Work well with little noise. Not audible while listening movies or music.

One option is to get either a 120mm or 140 mm computer fan

Deepcool Windblade 120 mm Semi Transparent Cooling Fan with Blue LED (Black): Amazon.in: Computers & Accessories( can get the ones with led also to make the avr look cool, get a 12v power adaptor to power them and you are sorted. if you do not want to mess with wires then


get this AC Infinity MULTIFAN S4 Quiet 140mm USB Fan for Receiver DVR Playstation Xbox Computer Cabinet Cooling: Amazon.in: Computers & Accessories

its expensive but its silent and nice,

Thanks for the input friends. I think i will go with a laptop cooler. It will have minimum wires and will not look bad. Lets see how it works. [emoji3]

Yes, that's a good option. Go for a good brand, which would be reliable and also make sure that the fins are easy to clean.

I used to use a belkin laptop cooler, USB powered with dual fans with my denon. It did help circulate air and keep the denon cool. It's been lying used though since I switched over to Marantz NR series.

I am using small 4.5 inch exhaust fan works on mains. Even after 2 - 3 hrs of use, AVR is as cool as ice.

That's a great product and looks cool too, especially the T9 model, a little pricy though but I guess it's worth it.

I used to use a computer fan on top of my previous receiver (onkyo) and it really worked great, but since I got this Denon, it runs cooler compared to the onkyo even though it's more power driven.

Thanks for sharing the info.
