I recently got a primare 31.7 av pre amplifier.the seller said it had video issues but I plan on using it for audio so at a fraction of the original price I took the chance and bought it.

After a hour of play it seems to get about 100-120 degrees in the vents when I think the heat sinks are.

They look like 4 tall solid metal poles with heat discharge fins.it also gets warm on standby.

I was wondering if anyone has experience with this sort of thing?

So after lurking on eBay for a month a snagged a primare sp31.7 pre amp.it was listed as is and had no remote or power cord.also the video function was malfunctioning.after reading up I found out that the analog and the decoding are on separate circuits.seems worth a try for $250.

go it in the mail and a foot fell off.all good glue is cheap.after a hour of tinkering I got optical in and analog in to work using jumpers on the main out to my sub.the sound is very full and lush with good detail.full chain is now Wiim pro to optical.

Yamaha yp700 with nagaoka mp200 to pro ject phono s2 to primare to parasound 275v2 with Bowers and Wilkins 601s2. Asw608 sub.side note it’s huge and I need to shop for a rack now 😬
