Title: Hot Heatsink?
Post by: jackleather on 2007.March.13. 01:14:07

After an excellent evening taking apart, cleaning and re-assembling my EP 128 i discovered that the rear EP heatsink gets very hot. I have the cover off the heatsink right now and its too hot to touch.

does this sound ok?

I think, it's ok, but I am not a hardware expert at all. As I remember, it's written in the manual too, that the heatsink can get extremely hot.
