    Generally, the warmer a piece of equipment runs, the shorter its life will be. However, some equipment (like class A amps) are designed to run hot. I have an infrared thermometer for measuring such things and would try measuring it where it is, then move it into the open and try it there and just see if it feels or measures cooler. If it’s significantly cooler in the open, you might want to do something. If you had a measurement you could also ask NAD.
