Help me Please???

I have just purchase a Classe CAV-150 6ch amp, and after watching a Movie this amp is very very hot. It might burn the skin if you touch it for too long. Is this normal from highend amplifiers? This is my first really highend amp and I just want to make sure there isn't something wrong with it. Any input would be grateful.

Call the maker and ask this question. Is this hard to figure out? If your Ford is overheating do you place an ad in the local newspaper for advice or do you call the Ford dealer? What are you thinking, asking people on audiogon what they think when you can ask the MAKER?

Biz: There are nicer ways to state this. Aaron has just bought his first highend amp and probably can't contact Classe nor his dealer tonight. Let's not come down on him with both feet, lest he think all 'philes are hostile to newbies.

I have two Classe CA 400's that I run bridged and they get very hot at times. The above advice is good though. Contact Classe and talk to them. they are top notch to deal with and you will get a very quick response. You can email them through there website.
