I don't know that the XV432 fan is going to do you a lot of good. The PCB on the '432 has holes cut in it to provide airflow through the chassis while the others do not. Ultimately it's the bottom panel that serves as the heatsink for the power amp module, so I'd think raising it up and putting some airflow on that panel would be helpful.
