Question: Mounting an Amplifier
Hi everyone,
If I were to mount a Subwoofer amplifier vertically on the back of enclosure box for the subwoofer....would I experience a pre-mature failure of the amp from excessive vibrations?

Make sure also that the heat sinks are vertical and not horizontal. (go up and down not sideways) The heat will stay trapped in the sinks if they are mounted sideways and cause the amp to overheat. Bad news.
