A predictable response.

Yeah, I'm loving this little unit. May have to unplug the tubes everyday (to keep from curious toddler hands), which is a pain, but worth it!

I've experienced the hotness factor today - not too bad, but a bit of a concern, for sure. I'm concerned it might discolour/affect my bedside table?

Did you have any problems with that happening?

When I had my Little Dot 2++, I put larger feet on it to give it better ventilation. In the 6 months I owned it, it never discolored my bedside table.

I owned both the PA2v2 and the LD2++ and I had the same revelation. Then I went to a m^3 and realized the ld2++ is only a start in desktop amps

Good suggestion re. the larger feet and thanks for the input - good to know.

I'm always glad to help when I can

Check out Home Depot. They should have a decent selection of rubber feet that will screw into the existing tapped holes on the bottom of your little dot. Good luck.


I just found this picture. I put the taller feet on my 2+. Not the 2++. same difference though. The 2+ ran much hotter than the 2++. The taller feet made a difference from what I remember.
