Overall when looking at total space it would appear to be sufficient but I am concerned with only having 11 inches in total height which would be short of the 3.5 inch minimum and this is something I cannot adjust.

The rear of the shelves of which I have four have at least 1/2 inch of space gap between the very back of the cabinet so air can flow for example on the bottom of the cabinet where the amplifier would be located upwards.

I do like to play loudly and don't want to have an issue with thermo shut down and do not want to use any ancillary fan. Would this space work?
Hi Greg

You should be fine. The 3.5 inches is a suggestion but not set in stone and there is plenty of heatsink on the amplifiers.
