    DAC/amp to improve a pair of 599s

    I've tried asking this on several audio forums and all but one banned me "for asking questions as a new user" (seriously!) which apparently is a big no-no on audio forums. These places sound like a lot of fun. The only place that didn't immediately ban me is ASR, who seemed friendly enough :p...

    Is it OK to put my monitor on top of my receiver?

    The receiver is a Denon AVR-X2200W which has vents/a grill on top that looks quite thin. It gets quite hot when it's on. The monitor is an AOC G2460PF which weighs 6.3 Kgs and the base would probably cover about half of the top of the AVR so it could block some of the hot air coming out. I'm...
