    I really enjoy listening to music with my AKG 701S powered by this incredible amp. Sounds better by miles than my Rega headphone amp, only problem is that it is only good for a couple of hours listening when I have to switch it off else the smoke alarm goes off. Yes it gets that hot !!

    Is there any mod I can to make it run cooler?

    :(

    I don't really know apart from changing the tranny for a UK specced one.
