moocow	Re: matchless I've been using a $10 clip-on fan from Target to cool my Twin Reverb. I clamp it to the side of the cabinet and point it towards the output tubes. It moves a lot more air than a muffin fan, and really makes a big difference. It would be interesting to see if a fan like this would help tubes last longer in a Matchless. I do not worry about any extra noise at low volume because I do not play at low volume.
