Hi Carl,
-
Doesn't matter on some layouts, does on many. With enough
air moving past the proper parts, it would make sense to suck
air out in the Dentron and Amp Supply layouts.
-
If you lived in a rather humid area, blowing warm dry
air into the chassis might also be something to think
about as a "dry-out" benefit.
-
I would imagine constant hot exhaust air around
electrolytic ps capacitors should be avoided.
-
Boxer fans are not very good for serious tube/chassis
cooling requirements.

cheers

This may seem strange but I just noticed something I have to wonder
about!!
I'm working on a gla1000 and it just hit me that the fan on the back is
sucking the air out of the unit instead of blowing it into the amp!!!this
doesn't seem right to me , and it's not what I have come to expect of
fans!!!
Can anyone set me straight on this as to what is best?? The fan is an
ordinary "boxer fan", 115 vac !! thanks to all!!!!
