Really? Is that the case?

I know one audio company that went bust as a result of precisely this (poor thermal contact). Twice: once in New Zealand and once in the UK. We bought the remaining product, the engineering designs, and the contents of five filing cabinets, and took on the remaining staff of two for £5k from the receiver.
