Technics SA-DX940
had it for 5 years, no problems at all. I've used it in a cabinet as well as on an open shelf. Never had heating problems. If you are having heating problems it is probably because of stacking.

Working @ Radioshack (canada) I have used the 940 & 950 models both everyday. And the way that this thing gets pushed, It's the powerhouse of our entertainment sections. They get rigged up with all sorts of gadgets, to help demonstrate the various items in store. With the aid of SWITCH BOXES, I have seen up to 5 vcrs, 5 DVD players, a pair of cd players and tape decks and a ton of speakers connected to both models. I have noticed that the 940 does get a little warm after about 3 hours of continous high power usage. The cooling fan in it helps some, but I hooked up a cooling fan for it. When we started using the 950 under the same conditions, the heat problems were pretty much rectified by technics. On both systems though the sound quality is the best that I've heard yet. They are both definate good buys for home use. They kill RCA, Pioneer, Harmon Kardon, Sony and JVC models.

I bought a technics SA-DX940 for £320 this seems to be quite pricy compared with what everybody else paid in the states. It did come with 5 technics SB-AFC140 speakers and an ELTAX SW20 Active Sub. The price I paid was very reasonable considering I have seen them for £500+. I found it very easy to use and set up and overall very happy with it, and yes it does run vey hot.

This SA-DX940 is a great system... very outstanding sound and has 2 decoders : Dolby Digital and DTS. It is really marvellous with very good speaker systems... It's true that it gives off heat, but no problem if placed elsewhere than in a TV cabinet or so... I love it ! No problem with it at all... as good as a Denon which is a lot more expensive... The sound is even brighter and the stereophonic image as good. Use very good speaker cables and a very good subwoofer cavle... OEHLBACH cables are perfect with this unit !

Ive had the chance to hear many, many sound system this year, like McIntosh, crown, Marantz (all stereo) / kenwood (dont remember the model, the last one, Silver like) , H/K (AC3) ... and for the DTS/5.1 , Technics beats up the Kenwood and H/K.... Stereo mode is real powerfull too. I recommend the 940. Didnt really found any heat problems on it. when on peak volume, it gets almost cold , cuz of the fan in the back.
