Good Moring, I am looking for info on how hot the MSB S202 and MSB M205 are when used at low listening volumes.

I will have very limited space above the components (slightly less than 1") however they are fully open to the sides in a large well vented space.

I listen at about 70-80 dB and they are driving Estelon X speakers so a fairly light load, they will remain on standby but only really used for 30-60 min at a time.

Any thoughts on if they are likely to have issues or the rack layouts attached should be fine?

My S202 can get warm, even on extended listening evening in summer, never hot. It sits on a low shelf with limited space on top and air all around.
 
Less than 3 cm.
