    I have also heard that the 3801 ran quite hot at times and the problem was corrected with the 3802. I know several folks have bought a small Radio Shack fan and set it up so that when the receiver was turned on the fan came on and blows over the receiver to keep it cool. Here is a thread over at HTF that you might want to read. CLICK HERE

    I won the 3801 and no heat problem's.I have installed hundered's of these receiver's and again, no problem's.If you can get a good deal on a 3801..go for it, the 3802 isn't worth the extra money.5 watts and pl2 is correct.thats it.
