Distance between Dual Monos for lower temperature
#1
When both Devialets are positioned over each other temperature is rising till critical 64 degrees.
Some have created some Acryl kind of racks etc.
I wonder are there some spacer washer / distance elements or any other recommended solutions you are using to enable better airflow / distance between both Devialets ?

I am using some higher resonance damper (made for speakers). There are on the market multiple models with different heights.

Oh great! What are you using? What type of materials are recommended ?

I use OEHLBACH - XL Air Absorb (https://www.oehlbach.com/en/audio-equip/...air-absorb), but I also used other resonance damper. I also used handmade distance elements, made of wood or rubber.
I don't know if there is a recommended material. I think it is important that the material is not sensitive to temperature, and the area covered by the base of the distance elements to be minimized (so as not to reduce too much the cooling surface of the amplifier).
Obviously, the dimensions of the distance elements must be such as to ensure the stability of the amplifier above.

Some on this forum have recommended the optional wall mounts, as the Devialets profit from some sort of chimney function that this position provides. I think the nicest (eye pleasing) option other than stack them on each other is a quality hifi rack with two or more shelves. I have placed my units side-to-side to keep the temp low.

IMHO, the most eye pleasing option is to have at least one D mounted on the wall. This way, you can see the display.
Like this, perhaps?
