Is there any damage that could occur to a Headroom Balanced Max Amplifier by placing a laptop computer directly ontop of it? I have a small Kitchen mat placed in between both units? I am asking this question becuase I am running out of space in my apartment to put audio equipment. This placement is my only alternative right now. Thanks Scottsmrnyc

Sorry, I forgot to add that I will not be running both units at the same time! Scottsmrnyc

I would imagine not. Though the Max has a transformer in it, right? That may cause havoc with magnetic media, but don't quote me on that.

Get a couple of wood pen stock blocks and put under the laptop as stand-offs between the amp and the computer. This would allow breathing room and a flatter surface for the computer since I think the Max is rounded. These can be found at a local wooding working center.

Glue some felt on both sides of the wooden blocks to prevent the scratching of either unit.

Anything your comfortable with will work just fine.

Very minor potential to do things like have a little interference.

And you could run 'em at the same time no problem.
