FOSI AMP Mono V3: cooling it down :)

I have two Fosi Amp Mono V3 Amp to feed my B&W 805S and, although not that disturbing, they run a bit hot for my taste :)

So I tweak them, after some investigation around how to do it, and came up with this solution (not expensive and bought all, except the feet on amazon.es).

Under around three hours of listening music at a generous volume, pressing hard with my hand on top:

Before: after some seconds I had to get my hand of. It started to be unconfortable.

Now: I can keep my hand. It's warm+ but not unconfortable.

Sorry I don't have the means to measure "scientificaly".
The initial test was with one of them like this and the other not. The difference was obvious on touch. I believe that some 10ºC or more less (but no way to measure).

PS - If anyone is interested I can put the links of the materials :). The feet are from Leroy Merlin (solid metal drawer pushers and the rubber end are the original feet from the amps: I removed them and resticked them on the metal ones).
