petetexas Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Ran the Ashdown Retroglide now for three days bedroom level ( not continuous playing ! ) but longest about two and a half hours with the fan switched off , did not even get warm . Nice not having the noise . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassBod Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 I’ve played mine very loud into 4ohms for a few hours on many gigs, always stone cold externally (with fan). Not even the slightest warm spot on the case. Can’t imagine the noise you’d have to make to reach a thermal shutdown 😜😬🔊🤫 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or longer cables, and keep the amplifier outside the room. It does seem like a faff, but a friend of mine did that for his recordings at home and it was quite good (the amplifier controls don't really get tweaked much during a session), and minimal £££ investment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
