My D-Premiers were regularly >50C, with 7.1.1 nearer 40C and with 7.1.3 <<40C
And mine run at the same temps give and take 1-2 deg C.

But isn't this pretty much dependent on the average listening volumes?

Of course, but I hope it doesn't shock you that I made the comparison following similar length listening sessions at the same volume.
I have been making engineering evaluations for 45 years and whilst the professional ones would be more rigorous than this I would not completely abandon the obvious.
I am certainly noticing several degrees less, so around the mid-30s as opposed to early 40s.

I start to feel that my units have some issues as I; 1/Does not have lower temps with 7.1.3, 2/Do not experience the volume hike in same setting as with 7.1.1 OR is it just that em Raidho are so inefficient they need loads of power?
