How warm does the receiver get? Some brands get pretty warm.

I didn't notice this before but it is true. It feels warm but nothing to be concerned about. I opened it and found 2 one watt resistors inside which could be the reason for the rise in temperature. The two resistors were shiny as new. Two different brand remotes I own do not show that condition, they do not have large resistors.

Hi we use ours everyday sometimes for 6 to 8 house and we have never noticed a heat problem. It is activated now and it is cool to the touch.

No. not as hot as other devices. other devices were burning people, so they made this one less hot.

Depends on the brand, but for NGK you're correct: the lower the number the hotter the heat range.

The exterior gets warm to the touch, but not extremely hot (at least not in my estimation -- possibly someone else might find it to be objectionably hot).

Looking at the control right now...Warm is the first selection then it jumps to 200, 250,300 and to 400. I have used all the temperatures.

New models and price drops on old ones are all part of company product cycles. I too was afraid to buy my receiver based on the negative reviews but it is an amazing piece of equipment and I do not regret it one bit. I have never experienced any of the handshake issues that the negative reviews describe. Maybe these people are trying to use old equipment with it??? I really don't know

The amp will get warm at whatever setting the gain is at. I have mine at just under 3/4 and it gets warm, not hot. Completely normal.

Yahama uses Better High current Transisters and (Burr Brown) Decoders. Many also complain about excess Heat with some Onkyo Receivers, That would concern me about long term Durability.

Mine has been warm ever since I got it. I've been using it for months now without a problem. It's sitting on a shelf in the garage and I propped it up with an extra nut that I had in my toolbox to make sure there was some airflow.It's just noticeably warm, not hot. I can keep my hand on it. So far, so good.

The Pioneer Elite and Pioneer receivers are rock solid. I have a Pioneer receiver that's 21 or 22 years old and still works great. Though it's now in my office for music only, it still preforms great. I tried switching to an Onkyo 875 about 5 years ago, and did not care for it. Too bright. Pioneer receivers, both Elite and non Elite have a nice warm sound.

I have not experienced over heating of the amp. And from what I have read on this amp, it runs pretty cool.

It depends on if it's enclosed or not. I experience severe heat and issues when closing my cabinet door...the temp readout from the Onkyo settings says 65+. If I leave the door open it cools off considerably to around 50 or so. This is with an AV fan sitting on top of it as well. I'm debating on whether I should return it or not and whether its a bad amp or not.I haven't checked the wattage output.

The Niles unit is very handy and reliable. I've had one for several years. The only problem I had was it made my stereo run hot and fail rather quickly. I picked up the same model receiver off Ebay used and I have a small fan blowing on top of the receiver anytime it's on which dropped the temp dramatically and so far the second receiver has lasted well over a year.

Mine gets very warm. In fact, I keep it on the two lowest settings all of the time. The two higher ones would be too hot for me. So there is a lot of range with the heat in this one.

Mine gets as warm as any other AC adapter I have used. Nothing out of the ordinary. Make sure it is not covered by a blanket, being used as a foot warmer, etc.

Yes it gets fairly warm, but all projectors do. I use it for 8-9 hours when doing presentations and I put right back in my bag when I'm done. I has been amazing, compact, reliable and throws a great image on the screen. At conferences it just sits there rolling through the same PowerPoint hour after hour.

I haven't had any problems at or around that temperature--particularly if the power to the camera is kept on. Both the camera and receiver operate on 120 V, but a simple step-down converter for each shouldn't be a problem if you're on 240V. As C. Muncy noted, I had an audio feedback problem coming from mine as well, but wasn't sure if it was a voltage-related issue. Since I'm using my camera to monitor a bluebird nesting box, and audio wasn't critical, I simply disconnected the audio feed cable from the camera.
