V3 Mono

[Paul X101]

Hi everyone, Just received my pair of V3 mono blocks, and a couple of questions can/do you stack them one on top of the other?
Also have them set on auto but one switches off, and one stays on for another 4 mins before shutting off, also these are replacing a pair of Linn LK85's and I am using one of the electrical sockets that the Lk's used to power the V3's now the fridge motor turns the V3's on from standby this didn't happen with the LK's

I have used V3 monos for almost 2 months. In the beginning, I tried to place them stacked, but I found them getting uncomfortably hot. Then I placed them side by side with 1 inch of space between them. The auto-feature works perfectly here. Both turn off within the same second. I use them in an office setup, so no "machines" on the same power network.

Is your power supply connected to the same power section as the fridge?

Its a rented flat so I have no idea if its on the same ring as the fridge, all i can say is fridge is in kitchen, the V3's are in the lounge. and it didnt happen with the LK85's.
I shall unstack them and see if it makes a difference, Unfortunately i'm a little disappointed in these amps, have them connected to a Nad C700 & Focal Aria Speakers and the output is a little muddier through these amps than straight from the Nad, The only saving grace is that the Nad is running much cooler now. I now wish I hadn't sold the Lk85's
