Room is 26' x 18' and my climate would be similar to Northern Cali. Anything else to consider?
I would have hoped someone with experience with the XA160.x would have chimed in by now on how much heat the amps produce after they've been left on for a while. My climate is deep south and an additional heat source beyond our naturally hot summers would be a big concern.
