Default D-Control ventilation

Howdy again.

Still exploring options for mounting my 48 channel D-Control.

An option is to mount it directly on a heavy duty desk that has a top.

I've looked under the D-Control and only see vents at the front and the back and these wouldn't be obstructed at all. The remainder of the base would be hard on a surface however.

Is anyone doing this? Have you had any issues?

Thanks,
Stef.

My D Command has been sitting on a hard surface for 10 years with no heat related issues.

My 24 channel D-Command is mounted inside an Agrosy desk and has zero heat related issues at all.
