Generally, CD players generate almost no heat (no vents; no fins on the back; no fan). Therefore it is OK to place something, including a receiver, right on top of a CD player. As long as the receiver is on a flat.

Is it OK to stack stereo components?
The amplifier needs to be able to radiate any heat it generates whilst it’s in use so placing devices on top of isn’t something we’d encourage.However as the amplifier is usually the heaviest component in most systems, this can limit the amount of equipment that should be placed under an amp in a stack.
Can you put an amplifier on top of a speaker?
You should be fine. As long as either one of your subs is large enough to physically accommodate the amp properly. The weight damping on the Sub from the amp should minimize any large or even micro vibration effects on either unit’s electronics.
Can you put stuff on top of a receiver?
You are correct. It could overheat. The receiver is designed to vent heat assuming there’s sufficient free space. Blocking the vents could result in overheating, especially with modern receivers which run hot.
Is it bad to stack electronics on top of each other?
Concerning the electronic/magnetic stuff, your laptop will not give out that much amount of stuff to spoil the iPhone, unless your laptop is a microwave. Though it won’t likely damage your laptop or phone, it’s a general rule of thumb not to place two electronics on top of each other.
Can you stack amps on top of each other?
You can stack them up but don’t have them right against the wall or should I say too close to the wall.
How much space do you need around an amplifier?
Although there’s no definitive specification, we recommend a minimum of 5 inches of ventilation space on top and 2 inches on either side of the receiver/amplifier to reduce the risk of the amplifier overheating and tripping the Protection Circuit when playing at moderate to high volume output levels.
What is a stack system?
The “stack system” involves keeping a library’s collection of books in a space separate from the reading room.It is a non-circulating collection of over 40,000 volumes in a closed stack system and includes general reference materials, museum archives, artist files, and auction catalogues.
Can you stack preamps?
You can use two preamps as long as you balance the gain on the preamps to have enough headroom, so the audio signal doesn’t clip or distort. You can either connect the preamps in series or parallel and mix the two tones together.
Is it OK to put receiver on top of subwoofer?
It is always advised not to put a receiver on top of a subwoofer. Because of the extreme vibrations the subwoofer produces, it may cause vibration fatigue, damaging any objects on top of the subwoofer, especially one like a receiver.
Is it OK to put things on top of a subwoofer?
I’ve had stuff in my garage fall off the shelves from vibration caused by the subwoofer even though the subwoofer itself does not vibrate. When using balanced subwoofers, the safest place to put something is on the subwoofer itself because everything else will eventually resonate.
Can you sit on a sub?
as long as you aren’t placing any direct pressure on the woofer, it should be fine.
Can you put a speaker on a receiver?
Connect the speaker wires to the speaker terminals on the rear of the A/V stereo receiver. IMPORTANT: For spring clip terminals, press down on the red (positive) or black (negative) clips and insert the speaker wire into the slot. Then, release the clips.
Can I use receiver with turntable?
The receiver allows you to connect your turntable, record player, CD player, TV, etc. all at the same time. Want to switch from watching a movie to listening to a record? Simply switch the receiver from the TV input to the phono input and that’s it.
What makes a good stereo amplifier?
Generally you should pick an amplifier that can deliver power equal to twice the speaker’s program/continuous power rating. This means that a speaker with a “nominal impedance” of 8 ohms and a program rating of 350 watts will require an amplifier that can produce 700 watts into an 8 ohm load.
Is it okay to stack DVD player?
Yes as long as the weight does not exceed shelf capacity and you place it low enough to stack the units together.
Is it OK to stack computers?
How To Properly Store Portable Computer Systems Without Damaging Them. When storing multiple portable systems, it is a best practice not to stack them on top of each other. Other systems or heavy materials that are placed on top are likely to damage some of the systems at the bottom of the stack (Figure 1).
Is it OK to put one laptop on top of another?
Pressure to the area behind the screen can cause irreversible damage to the hardware.Due to the concerns with pressure damage to the screen, we would not recommend stacking more than 7. Other suggestions from my colleagues for storing laptops include: Using storage bins to store laptops, resting on their hinge edge.
Why Do People stack amps?
Stacks can be better for studio settings
This gives the player and the engineer the ability to compare amps and tweak settings from a comfortable, neutral setting. This arrangement also lets the player or the producer hear the amp and speakers just as the microphones do, which leads to a better performance and mix.
Do amps stack?
No; voltage adds in series, current capacity adds in parallel. Two 12V, 6 amp-hour (capacity is in amp-hours, not just amps) batteries can be combined in series to make a 24V, 6 Ah battery, or in parallel to make a 12v, 12 Ah one.
Does receiver need ventilation?
“Although there’s no definitive specification, we recommend a minimum of 5 inches of ventilation space on top and 2 inches on either side of the receiver/amplifier to greatly reduce the risk of the amplifier overheating and tripping the Protection Circuit when playing at moderate to high volume output levels.
