Cool, rather hot.
Just got my first good look at it, the front panel was not very visible in
the cardboard box along with some crud on the front panel, but did get a
good look at the top of the chassis.
It is really a HT45 MK2a after all. But needless to day it needs some help
and a few minor changes and additions.
I had a HB single 3-500z amplifier up until ice storm shut off power for a
week and basement flooded. After a while was finally able to
get a generator but by the time got all the water pumped out lots of stuff
was destroyed. Had sick elderly family members here as well
and just could not get everything to high ground.
