That is a nice one you have. My tube preamp puts out lots of heat inside the cabinet. It is class A rating, meaning they run so hot it warms up the top of cabinet. So I placed a fan behind the cabinet sucking hot air out.
I used two 180mm fans glued together. For power, I am using radio shack power adapter 3-12volts rated at 1amp CAT No. 273-029. This way, I can control the speed. You want it low so it won't make noise.
Salamander Design makes a rear louvered exhaust for my audio rack. DIY is much cheaper and requires less space.
